GOING:

Race 1 1700m

Track: GOOD     True  

Fast early pace with Hawaiian Color showing out and Fuku Taoyuan crossing to apply some pressure. FATHER TO SON (9) promising colt with placings at both career runs to date. Last start was 1.2 lengths from the winner in third over 1700m at this track. Progressing well and expected to measure up again. FUKU TAOYUAN (11) went forward over 1700m at this track last time and held on well for second. Has the pace to overcome the draw. Leading contender and will take catching. HAWAIIAN COLOR (3) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1700m at this track when second. Nicely drawn and another bold showing is expected. KING OF WORLD (12) is a two-start maiden who placed on debut then could only manage sixth last start. Should settle just off the speed despite the tough draw. Plenty of scope for improvement.
