GOING:

Race 1 1400m

Track:      

Fluffy Song to take charge ahead of Indignato at a solid tempo. FLUFFY SONG (9) has scored at her last three starts, most recently by a nose over 1400m at this track as favourite. That continued the very strong form this campaign, with three wins from three starts. Top chance again. ZWEI STERNE (3) was well in commission when resuming last start over 1300m at this track when third, beaten 3.5 lengths. Fitter and expected to be prominent. SANO LAKI (2) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 1300m at this track. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. B B RADON (10) was well fancied last time out but could only manage seventh over 1300m at this track on July 28. Better than last start and can feature.
