GOING:

Race 2 1300m

Track:      

A distinct absence of early speed so don't expect any records to be broken. KINGDOM WINNER (8) improved sharply with success over 1400m at this track a week-and-a-half ago, getting home by a neck. Can salute again. PRIMA FEVRE (6) pushed forward from a wide draw last time out and was prominent for a long way before fading to finish fourth over 1400m at this track. Will go forward and is expected to be in the finish. RIVAL (3) raced below his best last time when tenth over 1400m at this track. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. MIDNIGHT BIRD (2) made progress last time out, finishing second at the end of 1400m at this track. Finds a nice race and can play a big role.
