GOING:

Race 11 1300m

Track:      

No recognised leader engaged but Trolltunga possesses enough dash to take advantage of a low draw and take it up. GEMMA (4) went forward from the low draw last time before fading to finish fourth over 1600m at this track. Will be handy in the run and could prove hard to run down. MEINER MYTHOS (10) improved last start to finish third over 1600m at this track after being in the firing line on the turn. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. NIYODO SMILE (6) showed little early speed last start and failed to come on in the straight when sixth over 1600m at this track. Suitably placed and anticipating a better run this time. RAISON DU SOURIRE (7) missed the placings last start when seventh over 1600m at this track. Suitably placed and can turn things around.
