GOING: S

Race 2 1400m

Track: SOFT      

Genuine tempo with Letter Code leading the way. LETTER CODE (4) is back from a spell of five months. Closed last prep as a winner, taking out a 1400m contest at this track by a neck. Credentials hard to knock. SMART CAPRICE (7) improved last start to finish second over 1400m at this track after being in the firing line on the bend. Looks well placed so expect another big run. SNOW PEACOCK (1) failed to figure last time over 1400m at this track. Looks well placed here and can play a more prominent role. BRAVO BRAVO (3) next best.
