GOING:

Race 10 1800m

Track:      

Win Creed, Backpack and Habibi will not hold back as they vie for the lead from Maruka Vento and Keisan Noble. WIN CREED (8) is a seven-time winner who has been racing in great heart, scoring by 3 lengths last time out over 1400m at this track. Races well here and is the testing material. BACKPACK (5) was sent out favourite last time and scored by 8 lengths at this track. Boasts six wins here. Shigeharu Mabuchi who has six wins when partnering stays on. Major player. HABIBI (4) is putting together some solid results. Finished second at this track two starts back then landed the prize by 3 lengths as favourite last time out over 1400m at this track. Meeting a deeper field this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. SCHNELL KAGA (7) finished third last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths. Should be cherry-ripe. In the right race and is worth serious consideration.

Most recently scored a big 5 len win at this track April 16 over 1580m defeating Lagoon with 55kg at $24.30. The start before that sat behind the speed prior to fading second last of 8 at this track on April 2 over 1400m, 9 len behind A Shin Carrots carrying 53kg at $30.50. Doesn't look good enough to threaten the top few.
