GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo from It's My Business leading Never Say Goodbye. IT'S MY BUSINESS (1) finished fourth last start over 1400m at this track when resuming. Kanta Inoue goes aboard and the inside draw is a real bonus. Fitter and a major player. VOLTEGGIO (4) did well last start but found one better over 1400m at this track, beaten only half a length. With a little improvement can take this out. BEAR MAY FEATHER (8) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at this track, finishing fourth at the end of 1400m when she did her best work late. Has place claims. NEVER SAY GOODBYE (2) resumes from a spell of 12 weeks and looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 1400m at this track. Nicely drawn and a solid top-three hope.
