GOING:

Race 2 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with Sanono Blader and Dual Blade battling for early supremacy. CANON WOOD TAIL (1) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when a neck away in second over 1300m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. COOPERI (2) made progress last time out, finishing 5 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1300m at this track after being in contention on the bend. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. DUAL BLADE (9) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1300m at this track when third, beaten 10 lengths. Likely improver so he should be in the finish. SANONO BLADER (4) is a 14-start maiden who is well and truly overdue, finishing third at this track over 1300m last time out after being in the firing line on the bend. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake.
