GOING:

Race 11 1700m

Track:      

Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by Mitono Warrior. ICE MAN (2) has strung together a couple of wins at this track, the latest on October 4 over 1500m when he scored by one length. Finds a suitable race and can salute once again. HADIAH (6) finished second when resuming two runs back at this track then progressed nicely last time out to score by 2.5 lengths over 2100m at this track. Major player. FALCON WING (8) made progress last start to finish third over 1700m at this track. Finds a tougher race but a win is not out of the question. CARTE MAITRESSE (11) progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1400m at this track. Anticipating another big run.
