GOING:

Race 2 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with Tamamo Jacket leading the way. FULL GORILLA (6) was well fancied last start over 1400m at this track when second. Has a superb record here at the journey with two wins and a 100% top-three strike rate. Sure to run well. JASPER JACK (8) settled towards the back of the field last start and made little impact in the straight when sixth over this journey at this track. Beautifully placed and in the mix. ALSKAR (7) settled well back from the inside draw last start before coming home nicely to finish fourth over 1300m at this track. Among the chances. MONCH (9) is finding the breakthrough elusive, finishing sixth at his latest appearance over 1300m at this track. Leading prospect on best form.
