GOING:

Race 1 800m

Track:      

Supercycle is expected to lead at a strong tempo. SUPERCYCLE (2) returns from a layoff of nine weeks. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 800m at this track. Has recorded five wins when first up from a break. Should be hard to stop. DAIEI BILBERRY (5) doesn't win out of turn but ran a strong race last time out over 800m at this track, finishing third and beaten 2.5 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. AMAGO (7) finished seventh two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 900m at Kawasaki, beaten 2.25 lengths. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. SWEET WILL (6) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a tenth over 800m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects.
