GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Good pace headed by Hamburg Hammer, Suwannee Tesoro and Taiko Faith, with Back Shoot and Evgenes close by. SUWANNEE TESORO (1) finished fourth two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by 5 lengths as favourite after being prominent at the bend over 1400m at this track. Facing a tougher assignment but she is capable of another big run. TAIKO FAITH (3) did a great job to score by 1.5 lengths over today's course and distance last start in a much improved run. Taking on a better field but she is good enough to figure in the finish. BACK SHOOT (9) sat on the pace and stuck on well to score by a head at this track and distance last start in a much improved run. Must raise the bar but another win beckons. SUEHIRO INAZUMA (10) built on a nice third two starts back at this track with success as favourite over 1400m at this track three weeks ago, getting home by half a length. Finds a suitable race and can make it two in succession.
