GOING:

Race 2 1400m

Track:      

Bagliore Di Nero to take charge ahead of Pray For F at a good tempo. BAGLIORE DI NERO (6) was well supported when resuming last time out over 1300m at this track and proved too strong, scoring by one length. Generally runs well second-up and looms as the one to beat again. STAR TIARA (3) hasn't made an impression lately despite market confidence. Last start could only manage fifth over 1400m at this track. Rates highly in this line up. Gets her chance. BRIKSDAL (7) finished fifth two runs back then did well last start but found one better over 1400m at this track, beaten only a nose after being in contention on the corner. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. PRAY FOR F (4) showed good early speed from the inside draw last time out, leading for home before finding a couple better over 1400m at this track. Well-placed and worth including.
