GOING:

Race 12 1400m

Track:      

Strong tempo with Jackson Roots and T O Tebaldi leading from Piena Fevre and Brigliadoro. PIENA FEVRE (3) is a talented type yet to taste defeat after two runs this campaign, the latest over 1400m at this track. Comfortable winner last time and can measure up again. JACKSON ROOTS (8) did a great job to score by 1.75 lengths over this course and distance last time out to build on a solid first-up result. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is capable of another big performance. LILY OF THE HEART (2) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1400m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. T O TEBALDI (6) went forward over 1400m at this track last time but found one better. Has a good association with Sakito Yamamoto with a run of three top-three results. One of the better hopes.
