GOING: G

Race 11 2000m

Track: GOOD      

Expect a strong tempo with Chiton pressing on from an outside draw, with Yuyu Ski nearby. CHITON (10) scored at his latest appearance over 2000m at this track on March 26. Has a very good first-up record and is a top chance here. SAYONO TRADER (1) is in fine form and hasn't missed the frame in her past four starts. Last time out she scored over 1800m at this track. Leading contender. BISHAMONTEN (8) finds it hard to win with three victories from 36 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when 15th over 1600m at this track. Finds a more suitable contest and can find the winner's circle. YUYU SKI (6) returns from a layoff of five-and-a-half months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1600m at this track. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race.
