GOING:

Race 2 1600m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with the speedy Happy Bivouac leading the way. G T HAPPY (8) met with solid support last start over 1400m at this track when third, beaten 2 lengths. Record at this track is strong. Leading contender. HAPPY BIVOUAC (7) got home by one length last time out over 1300m at this track. Yet to miss the placings from three starts at this circuit. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Will prove tough to beat. CANON WOOD TAIL (4) finished 7 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1400m at this track two weeks ago. Steps up in journey today. Among the chances. TOHO LAMBO (3) produced another moderate effort last start when 20 lengths from the winner in tenth over 1400m at this track. No surprise to see her in the frame.
