GOING:

Race 1 1000m

Track:      

Without much in the way of early speed it might be left to Ryuno Flanker to take charge. RYUNO FLANKER (8) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1000m here. Fitter so expect a better run this time. AVALANCHE BERN (10) missed the frame last start when she was never in contention over 1000m at this track, finishing tenth. Nicely placed and look for improvement. HAKKO QUEEN (5) strode forward early from her wide draw over 1000m at this track when fresh from a spell last time, leading for much of the way before being claimed in the straight to finish third. Top-three hope. LUSTER CANNON (3) is down in trip and can improve on recent efforts here.
