GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Ace Of Spades to take charge ahead of Your Song at a good tempo. YOUR SONG (10) showed good speed last time out and fought on well to finish third over 1600m at this track. Will be handy despite the tricky draw and should be in the finish again. VARGAS (7) was in the money two starts back but couldn't back it up last time when eighth at this track over 1400m. Well placed and can bounce back. AOI MAKOTO (6) was in the firing line on the corner and ran a better race last start to finish a close third over 1400m at this track. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. STAR SAPPHIRE (1) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 1400m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects.
