GOING: S

Class Open Special Weight B 1700m

Track: SOFT   Rain (Max: 23)   True  

Genuine tempo with Baden Baden to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. UPTOWN WHIZ (2) resumes. Didn't make an impact at his only run last prep on July 6 finishing fourth and beaten 9 lengths over 1800m at this track. Should park just off the speed. Expected to be in the finish. TAURUS QUEEN (6) displayed plenty of early toe and kicked strongly to score over 1800m at this track last time. Carries more weight this time but expected to go very well. MEGA DRAGON (4) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest at this track over 1800m. Has a fine record here with four wins from 10 starts. Expected to run well. BADEN BADEN (8) finished second over 1800m at this track at her most recent appearance on June 23. Can make her presence felt.
