GOING:

RACEHORSE OWNERS ASSOCIATION PLATE 1400m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 15)    

Strong early tempo with My Best Shot, Walt Whitman and Mister Speaker leading the way. MY BEST SHOT (1) ran on strongly when winning his last start on the polytrack. He has won twice and finished third once from as many starts over this course and distance. He has class about him and should notch up his fourth-career victory. FAMILY LAW (4) was disappointing in his last start over 1200m on this course. He will like the rise to 1400m and from pole position, he may be hard to peg back. MISTER SPEAKER (3) finished fifth last time out over 1200m at this track. Steps up in distance today. Likely to push forward and race up on the pace. Best form puts him right in this. GOLDEN LINK (5) turned in another moderate effort last start when ninth over 1600m at Fairview All Weather. Has his share of talent and is a top-three prospect.
