GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Solid tempo with Factura leading from Geopark Boss and Audrey. GEOPARK BOSS (1) hasn't won recently but looks close to a breakthrough based on his last start third at this track over 1400m. Tomohiro Yoshimura who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Leading contender. A T TACHYON (2) was in the money two starts back at this track but couldn't back it up last time when seventh. Likely improver with strong prospects. M O DREAM (7) is close to breaking through, last start finishing just half a length away in second here after being prominent from the outset. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. HISHI ARAKAN (6) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fourth. Nicely placed to turn things around.

Going well. Comes off a 33 day let-up. At the latest run raced on the pace when 3rd of 9 at this track on May 24 over 1400m, 4 len behind God Hornet with 56kg at $2.30. Before that came from midfield; 3rd of 10 at this track on May 8 over 1400m, 1.1 len behind Martellato carrying 56kg at $1.80. Drawn to get the gun run out of the inside alley.
