GOING:

Race 11 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo from Shuffle Girl leading Oken Boss. OKEN BOSS (4) was in the money two starts back at this track but couldn't back it up last time when eighth, beaten 4.5 lengths, at this track over 1400m. Finds a nice race and can bounce back. WILD HUNTER (11) missed the placings two runs back then settled well back last start when 7 lengths away in sixth over 2100m at this track. Going up a level this time but he cannot be taken lightly. GRAND JUBILEE (1) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1400m at this track, beaten 3 lengths. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is good enough to play a major role. MELTEMIA (7) has not won for a long while. Last raced on February 26 when tenth at this track over 1700m. Finds a tougher race but a big run will not surprise.
