GOING:

Race 1 820m

Track:      

There should be a bit of pressure with La La Kerria and Ask Sustainable pressing forward in advance of Kirakirari and Angel Momo. LEO FUTURE (1) was always well out of his ground when sixth in an 820m contest at this track three weeks ago. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. SMART QUEEN (7) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at this track. Strips fitter and can figure in the finish. LA LA KERRIA (11) showed good early speed and led around the bend last start before being cut down, finishing fourth over this journey at this track. Could be hard to catch. IN NO TIME (4) is usually thereabouts. Finished fifth last start over 820m at this track. Has ability and can run a forward race.
