GOING:

Race 11 1700m

Track:      

Certain to be a strong tempo with Habibi, Bol and Bird Has Flown leading the charge. HABIBI (9) is a model of consistency with top-three finishes at his last nine starts, most recently finishing second over 1900m at Kasamatsu. Can go on with it. TERUKEN LEINSTER (6) got the prize two runs ago then last time out was second over 1700m at this track. Yet to miss the frame in three starts over this course and distance. Key runner. BOL (2) had been in great form winning three on end before finishing second last time out over 1500m at this track. Certainly worth another chance. NOBORI YUMIN (4) raced close to the lead before clearing out to score an effortless 3-length win over 1700m at this track last time. Form at this track is solid. Deserves respect.
