GOING:

Race 10 1400m

Track:      

Break Neck to take charge ahead of Sky Trier at a solid tempo. SKY TRIER (9) last appeared when he scored over 1400m at this track on December 9. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. BREAK NECK (10) returns from a break of 11 weeks. Genuine performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a win over 1500m at this track. Nicely placed to kick off another successful campaign. GENEROSITE (6) has not appeared since he finished fifth over 1400m at this track on December 15. Makes plenty of appeal. BEST IS ASK (1) returns after a spell of 11 weeks. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1500m at this track. Makes plenty of appeal.
