GOING:

Race 11 1400m

Track:      

Plenty of pace established by Mikki Strike, Go Max and Sokko Tarumaka, with Best Decision close at hand. MIKKI STRIKE (2) was in a different class last time when a dominant 6 lengths winner over 1600m at this track, adding to his outstanding recent form. Sure to measure up again. CARRY HAPPINESS (5) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race last time out, finishing fourth and beaten only 1.1 lengths over 1600m at this track. Seiya Tatara gets the best out of this six-year-old entire. Well placed and in the mix. GO MAX (9) was prominent at the corner and finished second last start over 1600m at this track, only beaten 0.8 lengths. Has a good record at this course and distance, including three wins. Likely improver with winning claims. SOKKO TARUMAKA (10) went forward and proved too strong last time, scoring with 2 lengths to spare over 1600m at this track. Form at this distance is strong with two wins from four starts and is a key contender.
