GOING:

Race 11 1400m

Track:      

Lord Ley Line should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. WIDE KANT (7) has been racing well without winning. Last start finished third over 1600m at this track. Good record at this journey including eight wins so a big run is anticipated. NAMURA SWAGGER (2) strode forward early from his wide draw last start over 1400m at this track then fought on gamely to finish third. Meets some better types this time but a win is not out of the question. LORD LEY LINE (3) finished second last start over 1300m at this track. Has never missed the frame at this course, including six wins and three placings. One of the leading contenders. DANON MAGIC (1) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1300m at this track. Placed to advantage so anticipating another big run.

The run before that won by 5 len at this track June 16 over 1400m defeating Scallywag with 56kg at $1.40. Plenty to like about his prospects.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. First-up 6th of 12 at this track on July 6 over 1300m, 7 len behind Great Hien carrying 55kg at $25.40. Second-up tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 10 at this track on July 20 over 1400m, 4 len behind Rocky Thunder with 54kg at $49. Doesn't look good enough to threaten the top few.
