GOING:

Race 12 1200m

Track:      

Solid tempo with Online Boss leading from Kappagi and Vivien Eight. KAPPAGI (2) turned in a fine effort to win by a neck at this course and distance last time out to continue his outstanding recent form. Ideally placed and is sure to be there at the finish. ONLINE BOSS (5) found one marginally better last start over 1200m at this track after being prominent throughout. Has the class to figure prominently. SHIMME RUBUS (4) has been racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track over 1200m. Another big run expected. FUKUNO BURJ (3) was responsible for a better run last start, beaten only 1.4 lengths into fourth over 1200m at this track. Suitably placed and can turn things around.
