AUCKLAND THOROUGHBRED RACING TROPHY 1200m Track: |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Strength and Muumuu possess good early speed and will set a genuine tempo. T O ELVIS (5) scored by one length when resuming last start at Chukyo Dirt over this distance. Has found the frame in all four starts at this journey, including three wins. Expecting a bold showing. STRENGTH (2) clung on to finish third last start over 1400m at Chukyo Dirt, beaten a neck when resuming as favourite. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. NOBORI SHORYU (1) is back at the races for the first time since June 15. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1200m at this track. Can make his presence felt. MUUMUU (7) finished fourth over 1000m at Kokura Dirt when resuming last start as a well-back commodity, beaten only one length after being in contention on the bend. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
