GOING:

Race 2 920m

Track:      

Queen Orchid has the pace to lead in what is likely to be a moderate tempo. RABION AZUL (11) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished fourth last time out over 1400m here. Finds a suitable assignment back in trip and can take this out. MEINER ATTORE (9) made progress last time out, finishing second at the end of 1400m at this track after being in contention on the bend. Has the talent to take this out over the shorter journey. SUB EGA (3) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third here. Can find the winners' list. QUEEN ORCHID (6) met with solid support last time out but could only manage to finish ninth here in a disappointing performance. Finds a nice race and can bounce back.
