GOING:

Race 10 1800m

Track:      

Pace looks genuine from Punta Cana, Think Good and Star Get, closely attended by Shadow Lupin. PUNTA CANA (7) continued a hot streak of form, winning over 1800m at this track last start to make it four straight. Same winning combination as last time and can measure up again. SHADOW LUPIN (5) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1400m at this track. Goes up a rung or two but he is good enough to take this out. ECORO TITAN (11) lifted strongly but just failed to pick up the winner last start over 2000m at this track. Hard to beat in this suitable race. THINK GOOD (9) had support when resuming last time out but never threatened when a disappointing tenth, beaten 10 lengths, over 2000m at this track. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Deserves respect on best figures.
