GOING:

Race 10 900m

Track:      

The trio Bell Tree, Toa Rhodanthe and Purple Haze will set a strong tempo. TOA RHODANTHE (8) was an impressive winner last time over 900m at this track, scoring by 2.5 lengths and making it two straight wins. Rates as the testing material again. BELL TREE (4) turned in a fine effort to score by a neck at today's track and distance last start to maintain her good form of late. Likely to be there at the finish again. PURPLE HAZE (1) is a genuine type with two minor placings from three starts this prep. Turned in another good performance at her most recent run when third over 900m at this track after she was handy all the way. In a suitable race and can go on to take this out. BURMA TEAK (9) made progress last time out, crossing the line in third over 1400m at this track. Likely improver who looks sure to play a big role.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run sat on speed throughout when 3rd of 10 at this track on December 7 over 900m, 5.5 len behind Bell Tree with 55kg at $6.90. The start before that led but faded 3rd of 7 at this track on November 17 over 1400m, 4 len behind Laurel Runway with 55kg at $5.20. Drawn to get the gun run out of the inside gate.
