GOING:

Race 10 1600m

Track:      

Strong early tempo with A Shin Quasar and Tomiken Shairi leading the way. PEPTIDE HINATA (9) is putting together some solid results. Finished third at this track two starts back then got the job done by 0.8 lengths last time out over 1600m at this track. Has the ability to produce another positive result. TOMIKEN SHAIRI (10) finished sixth over 1300m at this track last start after lifting strongly to score two runs back. Goes very well at this journey, boasting three wins from four starts and is a leading contender. MANHATTAN ROAD (3) settled well back then picked up fairly well in the straight and finished fifth last time out over 1300m at this track. Steps up in journey today. Among the chances. NEO HUGHES (8) finished back in eighth over 1300m at this track last time out after a gutsy win two runs back. Can feature on his best form.
