GOING:

Race 3 820m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with Arumakan and A Shin Reel pressing for the lead. ARUMAKAN (5) looked good at his only appearance five months ago over 820m at this track, finishing third. Sure to have improved over the break and expected to go well again. A SHIN REEL (8) never threatened last time when eighth over 1230m at this track. Freshened up and coming back in trip. Well placed to make amends. CALM SUITE (6) is back after a break of four-and-a-half months. At the last run before the layoff she finished tenth over 820m at this track. Strong winning chance on best figures. SKY RISE (7) finished eighth at her most recent outing over 820m at this track after she was well back on straightening. Well placed on this occasion and is a likely improver.
