GOING:

Race 10 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with the speedy Naeil Na leading the way. COPANO CURACAO (4) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by a neck over 1400m at this track as favourite. That continued the solid form this campaign, with three wins from seven starts. Top chance again. HOUYHNHNM (7) impressed last time with a 2.5 lengths win at this track over this journey. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Best figures should see him run well. RESURRECTIO (3) finished eighth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1400m at this track, beaten 4 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. Must raise the bar but another big run is on the cards. MAGIC TOUCH (9) is back from a spell of five-and-a-half months and does go well when fresh, including a win to launch last campaign over 1300m at this track. Makes plenty of appeal.

Entire returning from a spell and has won previously when first up. Finished off last campaign fifth of 10 at this track October 18 over 1400m, 6 len behind Gran Raisins Dores carrying 57kg at $5.70.
