GOING:

Race 12 1200m

Track: AW      

Dodo Kirishima and Der Flug will settle forward and can set a moderate tempo. DESTELLO (5) met with solid support last start over 1200m at this track when sixth. Has a strong record here at this journey with five wins from nine runs. Well placed and is a key runner. DODO KIRISHIMA (6) was in a different class last time with a dominant all-the-way win by 2.5 lengths at this track over 1200m. Should measure up again. JUBILEE HEAD (4) finished out of the money when eighth over 1200m at this track two weeks ago. Well placed and tough to beat if near his best. STEEL STORM (1) finished fourth last start over 1200m at this track after racing on the pace for much of the way. Sure to give a sight.
