GOING:

Race 10 1400m

Track:      

Strong tempo from the outset as a number of them push forward, with Don't Let Go, Win Fierte and Bois Etoiles leading the charge. DON'T LET GO (1) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 2 lengths over 1400m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can get the chocolates. GOKO SASU (5) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by a neck over 1400m at this track. That continued the solid form this campaign, with two wins from four runs. Leading player again. ACE OF SPADES (2) showed the way from barrier rise to score by half a length last start over this course and distance. Among the chances again. ALSAFI (6) turned in a fine effort to win by a neck at today's track and distance when resuming from a spell last start. Suitably placed and anticipating another big run.
