GOING:

Race 10 1870m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with the speedy Meiner Evince and Windy Palace matching motors. MEINER EVINCE (3) was far from disgraced to finish 2.75 lengths away in third last start over 1700m at this track. That followed a first-up win here. Yet to miss the placings from 12 starts at this circuit and is a likely improver with strong prospects. KING LEGEND (1) is back at the races for the first time since July 19. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1700m at this venue. Expect him to play a major role while fresh. WINDY PALACE (6) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1700m here beaten 8 lengths. Strips fitter and can take care of this field. FUKUNO EVRY (8) never really threatened when resuming last time out, finishing midfield and beaten 8 lengths over 1700m at this venue. Backmarker who keeps coming. Solid claims on best form.
