GOING:

Race 2 1100m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with Riko Talos and Three Banker's up front. THREE BANKER'S (2) is still a maiden after three runs. Was popular in betting last time out but after being prominent at the turn didn't live up to market expectations, finishing fourth over 1100m at this track. This offers him a great chance of breaking through. ZULTANITE (4) looks close to a win after finishing in the money at both runs, the latest when second at this track over 1200m. Well placed and can take this out. OISHI TEIO (9) made progress last time out, finishing third at the end of 1200m here. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. OSMANTHUS (10) was responsible for a better run last start, finishing fourth over 1200m at this track. Draws out again but can threaten.
