GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with Satin Bodice leading the way. AKARI RICKY (4) did a great job to score by 3.5 lengths over today's course and distance last start in a much improved run. Taking on a better line-up this time but he deserves plenty of thought. LEO BRILLANT (1) scored over this course and distance last time after racing on the speed then lifting to score by half a length. Likely to be in the finish again. SATIN BODICE (7) is putting together some solid results. Finished second two starts back then got the job done by 7 lengths last time out over 1400m at this track. Capable of testing her rivals. LA LA ANCESTRAL (9) turned in a fine effort to score by 2.5 lengths at this track and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. One of the chief contenders.
