GOING:

Race 10 1800m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with All Steal leading the way. ALL STEAL (4) was quickly into stride over 1400m at this track last time and went on to score by 5 lengths. Should be prominent again from the low draw. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he deserves plenty of thought. KING OLIVER (11) was well fancied last time but found a couple better at this track, finishing a long neck adrift at the end of 1400m. Will appreciate the extra ground. Sure to run well. PREMIUM KIND (10) proved too strong two runs ago but was safely held last time out when third over 1400m here. Goes up a rung or two but she is up to the task. NOBLE BEACH (2) progressed nicely last time out to finish just a nose from the winner in second over 1400m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects.
