GOING:

Race 10 1500m

Track:      

Orion Heart has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. ORION HEART (2) was well in commission last start over 1700m at this track when fifth, beaten 5.5 lengths. Form at this distance is strong with four wins from six starts and should prove tough to beat. AEGIS BAROWS (7) was well-fancied when resuming last start but could only manage second over 1400m at this track. Overall record sound when second-up, including a win and two minor placings, and will strip much fitter for this. Each way claims. STELLA DEL CIELO (9) had been racing well with two consecutive placings before the last start, managing only seventh over 1400m at this track. Go again. FALCON WING (1) finished well back over 2000m at this track at his most recent appearance on December 19. Use the market as your best guide.
