GOING:

Race 10 1600m

Track:      

Moderate pace with Wilson Way taking up the running ahead of Blue Tice and Kiteya Iyoji. WILSON WAY (7) showed good early muster and fought on well to finish second last start over 1400m at this track. Major player again. KITEYA IYOJI (2) improved sharply on her fifth two starts back at this track with success over 1400m at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 1.5 lengths. Likely to be there at the finish again. MAPLE CAP (6) scored two back here but was below his best last time when sixth over 1600m at this track. Better than the last run suggests so don’t underestimate. RECIPRO TURBO (8) improved last start but found a couple better over 1400m at this track. Further improvement can see her in the finish.
