GOING:

Race 1 1000m

Track:      

Genuine tempo from Lien Solide leading Una To Lion. UNA TO LION (3) has been out of the money in recent runs including last time out when fifth over 1700m at this track two weeks ago. Capable of sharp improvement here. CRY OF THE EARTH (5) looks close to a win, finishing in the placings at his last couple of runs including a second most recently over 1000m at this track. Has a win and three minor placings from five starts at this track and distance. Leading contender. TAISETSU O (2) improved last start but found a couple better over 1000m at this circuit. Looks well placed so expect another big run. EFTHYMOS (1) was fourth in a 1000m contest at this track last time out. Can contest the finish.
