GOING:

Race 11 1400m

Track:      

Slick pace with Lord Ley Line finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. CASTLE TOP (10) was prominent from the outset when a resuming second at this track and trip last time out. Should park just off the speed despite the draw. Fitter so could go one better. WIN WURDE (2) opened this prep with a win two runs ago. Good again last time out when in contention on the turn before winding up in third over 1600m at this track, beaten a neck. Major player. LORD LEY LINE (1) turned in a fine effort to win by a neck at this track and distance when resuming from a layoff last start. Minoru Miyagawa gets the best out of this seven-year-old entire. Can repeat the dose. FOUR SIDE NINE (5) booted up from the inside draw to sit on the speed last start then went on to register a determined win by a neck at this track over 1600m. Chance again.
