GOING:

Race 12 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with Will Dusk to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. JO BLACK (9) was well fancied last start over 1400m at this track when third, beaten 2.75 lengths. Has a solid record here at the distance with two wins and four placings from seven tries. Sure to run well. MEISHO YASUMASA (7) bounced back last start and landed the prize by 3 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend over 1400m at this track. Meets some better types this time but another big run will not surprise. WILL DUSK (1) is a consistent performer with three minor placings from three starts this prep. Was handy all the way and finished third last start over 1400m at this track. In a suitable race and can play a major role. FRONTIERE (11) sat on the pace and stuck on well to score by 0.8 lengths at this track and distance when first-up from a spell last time out. Finds another suitable race and can figure in the finish.
