GOING:

Race 11 1200m

Track:      

A strong gallop is likely with Queen's Artemis and Classical Scholar taking up the running, closely attended by Dual Career and Shannon Falls. QUEEN'S ARTEMIS (7) is in a purple patch of form with her sixth straight win coming last time out over 1200m at this track. Same track and trip and looks tough to beat again. CLASSICAL SCHOLAR (6) had been in top form landing two consecutive wins before a last-start third over 1200m at this track. No surprise to see her in the finish. DUAL CAREER (11) found one marginally better last start over 1200m at this track after being prominent throughout. Can spear over from a wide draw and expect another bold performance. JORGE (4) finished third over 1800m at this track at his most recent appearance on November 7. Can return with a bold run.

Top chance if at his best.
