GOING:

Race 10 1400m

Track:      

Miscela Dorata and Roys Peak can pave the way. MISCELA DORATA (3) placed as favourite last time over 1600m at this track after he had won eight races on end. Well placed here and is a great chance to bounce back. NIXON TESORO (5) scored last start at this track over this distance. Has a strong record at this trip, scoring eight times from 15 starts. Reunites with Shuji Akaoka who has four wins from nine rides. Sure to play a big role. DANON DANCER (2) is a distance specialist who progressed nicely last time out to finish just one length from the winner in second over 1600m at this track after being prominent at the corner. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is one of the key runners. GOODWOOD GUY (6) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at this track over 1400m. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time.
