GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

In a race without a noted leader either Hello Sun or Taisei Natura can take charge. COMBAT FAST (1) returned from a spell two-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 4.5 lengths into fifth over 1300m at this track. Has a fair record when second up, including three top-three finishes. Fitter this time. Hard to beat in this suitable race. VOLTERRA (7) ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1400m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. CODE ZERO (4) was never in contention when resuming last start over 1300m at this track, finishing 11th and beaten 18 lengths. Best form augers well for this. TAISEI NATURA (3) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fourth over 1300m at this track after being prominent at the corner. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
