GOING:

Race 12 1600m

Track:      

Not much early pace and doubt they will go hard. BOURGEOIS (7) remains a maiden after 14 starts, the latest a safely held tenth over 1300m at this track. Rates highly in this company and is right in the mix. CLARUS (10) got well back over 1400m at this track last time and never threatened, eventually finishing 12th. Can crack the top three here. EMERAL GREEN (3) is a 29-start maiden who could only manage to finish seventh at her latest appearance over 1400m at this track. Among the chances in what looks a nice race for her. OINARISAN (6) missed the placings last time out when 11th over 1300m at this track. Suited here and is well placed to make amends.
