GOING:

Race 10 1700m

Track:      

Genuine pace with Dhanyavaad taking up the running ahead of Thorough Conan and Primera. PRIMERA (12) is in top form with two wins on end, the most recent an effortless 2.5 lengths victory over 1500m at this track four weeks ago. Has a formidable combination with Junki Mochizuki who has been aboard for her last two wins. Right in this. DHANYAVAAD (5) has found the frame at both starts this prep, the latest when second over 1500m at this track. The third-up record is strong so he is among the leading chances. IT'S NOTHING (4) was a determined maiden winner last time out, scoring by a neck over 1500m at this track. Looks well placed and can be in the finish again. SYMPATHIQUE (1) was responsible for a better run last start when fourth over 1700m at this track. Nicely placed to find some form.
