GOING:

Class 3 Handicap 1400m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 35)    

Plenty of pace likely from Dokki Dragon, Smiling Prince and Major Crown battling for the lead from Tristan Wangja. VICTORY SOCKS (8) ran below expectations last time at this track over 1400m, finishing fourth and beaten 16 lengths. Ready to bounce back today. SMILING PRINCE (1) did a great job to score by 3 lengths over this course and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Looks well placed so expect another big run. DOKKI DRAGON (7) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on May 9, finishing sixth and beaten 12 lengths over 1200m at this track. One to consider. CHANGJOUI ACHIM (3) was beaten for early speed and didn't come into contention when a disappointing ninth over 1800m at this track most recently. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.
