GOING: S

Race 10 1600m

Track: SOFT     True  

Genuine tempo from Gregg leading Dre Antheia. TURQUOISE DUE (6) raced on the speed and lifted to score by 6 lengths at today's track and trip last time out to build on a solid first-up result. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. DRE ANTHEIA (2) showed good early pace over 1500m at this track last time and kept going to score by 4 lengths. Drawn to enjoy a nice run just off the speed. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. HASENO CROWN (3) turned in a disappointing run last time out over 1800m at this track after a nice win the start prior. Faces an easier assignment so he is likely to play a big role. EL ROLLO (5) was racing well without winning, finishing in the money on two consecutive occasions, before finishing fourth last time out over 1600m at this track. Has claims.
