GOING:

Race 2 1400m

Track:      

A solid tempo on the cards with Mikki Gentle leading the way. MIKKI GENTLE (7) is a promising type still in first campaign but off to a great start to career. Already a two time winner including last start when scoring by 2 lengths over 1300m at this track. Races well here and rates a top chance again. BEYOND THE TIME (2) placed for the second time in his last three starts when a close second at this track and trip last time. Draws nicely so could go well again. TOUCH DOWN (8) hasn't been too far away of late. Draws wide but could play a role in this line-up. HINES TESORO (6) strode forward early from his wide draw last start at this track then fought on gamely to finish third. Can play a role again.
