GOING:

Race 10 1500m

Track:      

From their wide draws Esta Bonito and Quintarelli can establish a strong tempo. ESTA BONITO (10) pushed forward last time and battled on gamely to finish just a nose from the winner in second over 1400m at this track. Can spear over from a wide draw and can play a major role. ORA VERITAS (6) was prominent from the outset when second over 1700m at this track last time out. Masaaki Ohata stays aboard and although yet to win has been in the money on two occasions. Will strip fitter and is one of the big chances. WIN AZALEA (4) ran a strong race last time out, finishing fourth over 1400m at this track. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. ALL ROUNDER (9) turned in a much better effort last time out to score by a neck over 1400m at this track. Sure to make his presence felt.
