GOING:

Race 11 2000m

Track:      

Solid tempo with Koln Concert leading from Covinha and Al Barsha. AL BARSHA (4) has strung together a couple of wins at this circuit, the latest on June 6 over 1700m when he scored by a nose. Tackling an easier race so he is likely to play a big role. KOLN CONCERT (2) was quickly into stride and went on to score by a nose last time out over 1500m at this track. Has the ability to take care of this field. RUCHBAH (7) settled well back but hit the line well to finish fourth over 1700m here last time. Among the chances and could be tough to stop. RED BRONX (9) latest effort was a fifth over 1700m at this track. Anticipating a better performance here.
