GOING:

Race 11 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with Snow Princess leading the way. SNOW PRINCESS (8) built on a nice second when fresh from a spell two starts back at this track with a win as public elect over 900m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 3 lengths. Likely to be in the finish again. DAYDREAM BEACH (3) turned in a fine effort to score by 5 lengths at today's course and distance last time out to build on a solid first-up result. Meets some better types this time but another big run will not surprise. REGIUS (4) met with solid support last start over 1400m at this track when fourth, beaten 3 lengths. Has a strong record at this course, scoring six times from 11 starts. Sure to be competitive. TAI SAI (11) stuck on well when resuming last start to finish second over 1500m at this track after showing good early speed. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
