Maiden Race 1800m Track: FIRM |

|---|---|---|---|---|

A solid tempo on the cards with Wonderful Days leading the way. WONDERFUL DAYS (9) found the line nicely last start to get up for second over 1800m at this track. Should be prominent from the outset. Overdue and gets chance to break through. MATENRO HOUR (6) was well in commission on his debut over 1800m at this track back on November 29 and finished fifth, beaten 11 lengths. Showed ability on debut in a stronger race. Look for a bold run. UNLIMITED (1) is a five-start maiden who returned last time and finished sixth at this track over 1800m, beaten 4.5 lengths. Definite top-three hope with plenty of improvement to come. POD SIEG (5) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1800m at this track, beaten 3 lengths. Looks to be in the right race so he should be in contention again.
