GOING:

Race 2 1500m

Track:      

A solid tempo is on the cards with Lovely Senna and Dual Blade pushing for the lead ahead of Diputar Azul and Yamakatsu Raiko. TALK DOWN (6) did a good job last time, finishing in the money when third over 1500m at this track. Deserves to break through and gets his chance. FINAL FELIZ (8) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.1 lengths from the winner in third over 1500m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. DIPUTAR AZUL (9) ran on strongly but just failed to pick up the winner last start over 1500m at this track. Nicely placed to go one better. LOVELY SENNA (4) was well in the market first up from a spell last start over 1500m at this track but was safely held in tenth. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Fitter and must be respected.
