GOING:

Race 1 850m

Track:      

Little early speed on offer so Shake It Up should be prominent. SHAKE IT UP (8) is a 15-start maiden but does look to be edging towards a win, the latest effort an encouraging third at this track over 850m after being prominent at the corner. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. PALM ISLE (4) finished fifth over 850m over this track and trip on December 31. Capable of playing a major role. QUEEN'S MIRA (7) finished seventh over 1400m at this track at her most recent appearance on December 30. One to consider. FORTES (3) was last at the races when he finished ninth over 850m at this track on December 23. Among the better hopes.
