GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Angel Caido should have enough pace to lead a low-pressure contest. SOL DE MAYO (5) was a most impressive winner last time over 1300m at this track, scoring by 3 lengths. Settles back early but winds up late. Will be tough to stop. ANGEL CAIDO (8) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second last start over 1300m at this track. Tricky draw to overcome but does have good gate speed. In a suitable race and can find the winner's circle. CHOTTO YABAIYONE (9) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 18 lengths into ninth. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. ARDE COCO (4) was comfortably accounted for when eighth last time out over 1400m at this track, beaten 16 lengths, after a win at this track at the previous outing. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
