GOING:

Race 1 920m

Track:      

Just a moderate tempo given the absence of pacy gallopers. BRIGHT ZEUS (3) still in first campaign. Has been unable to fill a placing for a while, last start finishing eighth over 1500m at this track two weeks ago. Finds a nice race and can figure in the finish. MEISHO YAMAHAGI (5) was never in contention last time over 1500m at this track when she finished seventh. Likely to be in the finish in this suitable assignment. MARBLE CHAN (12) settled well back last time out then found the line strongly to finish sixth over 1500m at this track. Sure to be winding up late again and has top three prospects.. ASTRAL FLARE (6) gave away a big start at the top of the straight last start and finished tenth over 1500m at this track. Well placed and finds a suitable race.
