GOING: D

Race 2 1400m

Track:      

Moderate tempo expected with No Ka Pua likely to find the front over Kanaderu Funk and Soul Knot. NO KA PUA (3) improved last start but found a couple better over 800m at this track. Perfectly placed and looks ready to win. A SHIN DRYAD (6) finished fourth last time out over 800m at this track two weeks ago. Steps up in journey today and is right in the mix. SOUL KNOT (7) finished seventh at her most recent outing over 1400m at this track after she was well back on straightening. Cannot be ruled out in this suitable assignment. COPANO LINUS (4) spotted them a big start last time out and could only manage to finish eighth over 800m at this track. Backmarker who gets home hard and can be competitive.
