Race 1 1400m
GINREI (1) turned in a good effort when narrowly defeated last time at this track over 1400m. Boasts a 100% top-three strike rate at this trip and is a leading chance. BOM DIA (10) is on a nine-day back-up after finishing in the money over 1400m at this track. Must contend with a wide draw but is expected to go well again. POMPON DAHLIA (5) finished out of the money when seventh over 1400m at this track eight days ago. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. THUMBS UP (8) last start finished eighth over 1400m at this track after he was well back on straightening. Look for an improved run here. |
