|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Plenty of pace established by Ora Veritas, Let's Live On and Eight Beat Letter, with Faire Briller close at hand. LET'S LIVE ON (6) is going well this time in work, including a last start win over 1400m at this track to bring up three wins from four runs in the campaign. Should be prominent from the outset. Will give a great sight. NEVER LET YOU GO (8) has been a regular in the winners' stall of late including last start in dominant fashion over 1400m at this track. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is capable of running another bold race. ORA VERITAS (1) started at $1.80 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth at this track over 1500m. Yet to miss the placings in three starts over this course and distance. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is right in contention. SUNADOKEI (9) four-year-old filly who races well over this distance. Good effort but found a couple better last time out, beaten 1.3 lengths, over 1400m at this track. Worth following up.
