GOING:

Race 11 1200m

Track:      

Expecting Last Born to bounce to the front and lead from the low draw. SEI GEN (2) has progressed nicely in his last couple of runs. Finished second here two starts back then landed the prize by a nose last time out over 1000m at this track. Goes up a rung or two but he is up to the task. LAST BORN (3) strode forward early from his wide draw last start over 1200m at this track only to fade late and finish seventh. Likely to measure up here. LADY PYRO (4) is struggling to break through but hasn't been far away, the latest effort a fifth over 1800m at this track. Should be poised just off the lead. One to consider. TREVENA (13) progressed nicely last time out at the second run of the campaign to finish just 0.6 lengths from the winner in third over 1200m at this track. Likely to hold the form and is a strong top-three prospect.
