GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Not much early pace and doubt they will go hard. A SHIN MOTEUR (2) finished third when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at this track. Goes well at this journey with two wins from six starts. Perfectly placed to score. GRIMALDI (11) missed the placings two runs back then didn't feature last start when finishing ninth over 1500m at this track. Nicely placed to bounce back into the money. NISHIKI VIVRAVIVRE (6) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate, but ran a strong race last time out, finishing second and beaten only 1.5 lengths over 1500m at this track when he did his best work late. Has the talent to take care of this field. ROCK A HULA DANCER (5) returned from a spell two weeks ago when he was in contention on the turn before finishing fourth over 1400m at this track. Strips fitter and can feature in the top 3 this time.
