GOING:

Race 7 1300m

Track:      

Solid tempo anticipated with Yoshio Drive taking charge. YOSHIO DRIVE (4) placed as favourite last time over 1750m at this track after he had won two races on end. Drops in journey from the latest outing and should be prominent again. IRREGULAR (5) made progress last start to finish third over 1750m at this track. Should be peaking now and is ready to show what he can do. TREASURE SHIP (8) did well last start but found one better over 1400m at this track, beaten only half a length. Don't underestimate. ASHAKA DURAN (9) turned in another moderate effort last start when tenth over 1400m at this track. In the mix.
