GOING:

Race 2 850m

Track:      

Expecting Ho O Ranger to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sharp trip. ARAUCARIA (3) scored by 2.5 lengths last start over this journey at this track, his second success from his last three outings. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including two wins and two placings. Top chance. TORA NESS HARP (9) turned in a fine effort to score by 1.5 lengths at this course and distance last start in a much improved run. Looks well placed again so expect another big run. KAITO RUBY (1) ran a strong race last time out, finishing third and beaten only 2.25 lengths over 850m at this track after being in the firing line on the bend. Can be prominent again from the inside draw. HO O RANGER (2) has been about the mark of late including last start when second over 1000m at Morioka Dirt. Should be involved in the finish.

Racing well. Most recently sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 11 at Morioka Dirt on June 2 over 1000m, 2.5 len behind Speed Star with 56kg at $4.80. The start before that rolled along in front before being edged out 2nd of 10 at Morioka Dirt on May 26 over 1200m, 4 len behind Rosenmontag with 56kg at $4.60. Solid prospects and a good stall doesn’t hurt.
