GOING:

Race 1 850m

Track:      

Just a moderate tempo without an obvious speed influence. GIFTED ABELIA (9) improved last start but found a couple better over 850m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths. Strong winning hope. RISK TAKER (10) is backing up seven days after finishing third over 850m at this track. Jumps from a wide barrier but should be in the finish. COL LEGNO (6) progressed nicely last time out to finish just one length from the winner in third over 1300m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. PLAYFULNESS (3) was responsible for a better run last start at the second run of the campaign when fifth over 850m at this track. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
