GOING:

Race 12 1400m

Track:      

Expecting Baikal to take up the running with Elan Fevre and Belfast close at hand. OMOKAGE JO (5) turned in a fine effort to win by 4 lengths at today's course and distance when first-up from a break last time out. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is up to the task. BELFAST (4) did a great job to score by 2.5 lengths over this course and distance when first-up from a break last time out. Capable of testing her rivals. ELAN FEVRE (7) was heavily backed and justified the support when resuming last start over 1400m at this track, scoring by 2.5 lengths. Has a strong second-up record and is among the winning hopes again. SNARK DALI (3) did a great job to score by 1.3 lengths over this course and distance last time out to build on a solid first-up result. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is one of the key runners.
