GOING:

Race 10 1400m

Track:      

Go Go Birthday should find the front with Sherringford and Kisling on her heels. KISLING (7) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.5 lengths from the winner in second over 1400m here. Expect another big run. SHERRINGFORD (2) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by 3 lengths over 1400m at this track as favourite. That continued the solid form this campaign, with two wins and two minor placings from four outings. Leading player again. GO GO BIRTHDAY (4) will find this easier than last start when she finished tenth over 1600m at this track, that effort following on from a minor placing two starts ago. Worth including in this easier race. NANYO VIOLET (5) ran a better race last start, finishing fourth over 1800m at this track. The engagement of Katsuto Maruno is a positive move. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time.
