KOCHI   25 Apr 2026
 
GOING:

Race 2 1300m

Track:      

Solid tempo anticipated with Sidereus heading them off. TIME TO PARTY (1) was in a different class last time with a dominant all-the-way win by 4 lengths at this track over 1400m. Will prove very tough to beat. MINE SAILOR (10) did well to score two runs ago, then last time out finished second over 1400m at this track, beaten a neck. Major player. MEGA CHROME (7) started at $4.80 last time and ran below expectations, finishing seventh at this track over 1400m. Sure to run well. KEY GOLD (2) ran a better race last start, finishing fifth over 1400m at this track. No surprise to see him in contention.
