GOING: G

DIAMOND HANDICAP 1200m

Track: GOOD      

Super Universal to go to the lead at a genuine tempo. LO PAN SPIRIT (2) got a long way back in the run last start and never got into the race, finishing 3.5L away in stronger company. This appears a targeted attack however with Purton engaged as they drop into C4 today. Expecting him to sit much closer in the run and bounce back to winning ways. ARGENTO OCEAN (6) is on debut for the Douglas Whyte stable and while he has been green in his trials, he's shown plenty of ability in the process. Bowman was on board for his recent trial and sticks in the saddle for today's debut. Can make an impression on debut. GOLDENTRONICMIGHTY (5) made it back-to-back wins over this course and distance 28 days ago and he's had a quiet trial since that effort. Hard to knock his recent form and he's sure to put his best foot forward. LIGHTNING ARROW (8) is another debutant who has trialled nicely coming in. Can put up a solid performance at his first outing.
