GOING:

Race 12 1000m

Track:      

Fast tempo assured with Nishiken Cabal, Crown Villain and Demon Slayer going toe-to-toe. CROWN VILLAIN (5) produced a good effort last start when second over this distance at this track, beaten half a length. Yet to miss the placings here in an excellent record which boasts four wins and two placings. Expect a bold showing. TAKENO ROULE (9) did a great job to score by 2.5 lengths over this course and distance last start in a much improved run. Looks well placed so expect another big run. NISHIKEN CABAL (6) improved last start but found a couple better over 1000m at this track, beaten 2 lengths. Sure to run well. MANA ALII (8) promising colt who last start finished third over 1200m at this track. Key chance expected to feature.
