GOING:

Race 10 1700m

Track: AW     True  

Keen early pace with Transcendental, Best Leon and Macario locking horns. GAMMO LEGEND (12) was a winner over 1600m at this track last time out, dropping out early before coming home with a powerful run to score by a nose. In form and will take beating again. TRANSCENDENTAL (3) is building towards a win with placings at his last two runs, the latest effort a second over 2000m at this track when beaten 2.5 lengths. Drawn to enjoy a nice run just off the lead. Expecting a bold showing. MACARIO (13) is yet to break through in 16 runs but has been thereabouts. Placed two back then was 6 lengths away in fourth over 1600m at this track last time. Should be parked just off the speed despite the draw. Well placed here and among the winning hopes. WEISER BARCO (5) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 2000m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Fitter so expect a better run this time.
