GOING: S

Class 3 Handicap 1800m

Track: SOFT   Rain (Max: 24)    

A solid tempo on the cards with One Punch Dragon leading the way. ONE PUNCH DRAGON (8) scored by 4 lengths over 1600m at this track last start. Has a strong record this course, scoring at four of six starts. Leading contender. URUS QUEEN (3) was in contention all the way and fought on for second last start over 1800m at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. VISION POWER (7) finished seventh two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by 6 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend over 1700m at this track. Going up a level this time but he can win again. ENDING FIRE (9) was below his best last time when sixth over 1600m at this track, beaten 8 lengths. Well placed and should be in the mix.
