GOING:

Race 10 1600m

Track:      

Solid tempo likely from Daoradaora and Crown Sihr. GALAPAGOS (2) started favourite when resuming but went under narrowly over 1400m at this track. Will appreciate the extra ground. Winning chance. DAORADAORA (7) has been in great form recently, the latest effort a dominant win by 4 lengths over 1600m at this track to make it six victories in a row. Steps up a level but he is capable of running another bold race. MEISHO KAZUSA (3) went fast early and went on to score by 2.5 lengths last time out over 1400m at this track. Will be up on the speed from the low draw. Goes up a rung or two but he is up to the task. CROWN SIHR (10) pushed forward from a wide draw last time and sat just off the lead, eventually drawing away to score by a head over 1600m at this track. Form at this distance is strong with four wins from six starts and has solid claims.
