GOING: G

SAI KUNG HANDICAP 1650m

Track: STANDARD      

From the wide stall Precision Goal should cross and lead. PRECISION GOAL (1) led and bolted in over this course and distance a fortnight ago, winning by 1.3L in very easy fashion. He was getting a little tired late in the race, but it wouldn't surprise to see him big stronger this time around with that run under his belt. Will give them something to chase again. KASA PAPA (13) came into his fresh effort off just one trial and closed off nicely with a sustained run. Probably better over further, but drawing away from the fence may suit him better this time around. Fitter now and he can make his presence felt. FASHION LEGEND (5) disappointed behind Precision Goal first-up following a handy trial leading into that. He does tend to fail first-up however and can improve sharply second-up. That makes him an attractive proposition here, particularly with Purton hopping on board. Can land the knockout blow. RELIABLE PROFIT (4) finds a nice race on resumption and can feature in the finish.
