GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Without a recognised leader, Pure Marks and Apollo Bibi will likely set the pace. ECORO DUNES (6) didn't feature last start when 13th over 1300m at Tokyo Dirt. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a pivotal role in this easier assignment. APOLLO BIBI (8) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago then finished third over 1400m at this track last time out. Can recapture winning form. DERMA ATMAN (4) disappointed last start when out of the placings over 1300m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. LORD BALDER (9) missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, finishing 11th. Has his share of talent and is a top-three prospect.
