GOING: F

CORDINA FOOD CO PACE 2300m

Track: FAST      

HORN PLAYER (2) finished second of 12 last start in a Listed feature won by Glitter Aint Gold over 2300m at this track after leading early and then taking up the trailing position. Tough to beat from an ideal draw. VITE MONET (1) is the next elect off a last-start win by 10 metres at this track over 2300m when leading all of the way as the hot favourite. FRANCO TYSON (3) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when coming from five back on the fence to finish third of 10 at this track over 1609m.
