GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Neo Neo Mods has the pace to lead in what is likely to be a moderate tempo. HEART LOOP (6) doesn't win out of turn but ran a strong race last time out over 1200m at this track, finishing second and beaten a nose after being prominent at the corner. Likely improver with strong prospects. NEO NEO MODS (4) went forward last start over 1200m at this track and held on well for third, beaten 1.5 lengths. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. CANIF (7) is building towards a win with placings at her last two runs, the latest effort a third over 1200m at this track when beaten 2.25 lengths. Big chance to break through. OCEA MAJESTY (2) ran fifth at his latest appearance over 1400m at this track, finishing 4.5 lengths from the winner. Must be respected.
