GOING:

Race 2 1300m

Track:      

Five Roses is the likely leader at a slick tempo. FIVE ROSES (2) placed as favourite last time over 1400m at this track after she had won two races on end. Hard to fault and can find winning form again. QUEEN'S MINT (5) met with solid support last start over 1400m at this track when tenth. Worth another chance. ALBERTO (7) finished out of the money when seventh in a 1400m contest at this track two weeks ago. Nicely placed to crack the top three. MAGICAL WAVE (3) finished seventh at her last appearance over 1400m at this track on September 15. Appeals as a top-four contender.
