GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Solid tempo anticipated with Bogatyr leading the way. LAUREL RUNWAY (3) looks close to a win, finishing in the placings at her last couple of runs including a second most recently over 1500m at this track. Has a solid record at this circuit. Should be in the finish. BOGATYR (6) led into the straight last start over 900m at this track but could not sustain the pressure and finished sixth. Taiga Kurihara has scored on him two times and is back in the saddle. Bold showing expected. MEISHO MEIBOKU (1) finished out of the money when seventh over 1400m at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago. Nicely placed to take this out. RA'S AL'AYN (4) produced another moderate effort last start when ninth over 1400m at this track. Has his share of ability and is a top-three prospect.

Form hard to fault. Last start 2nd of 7 at this track on May 10 over 1500m, 7 len behind Trajectoire carrying 52kg at $10.80. Before that held ground to the line 2nd of 10 at this track on April 29 over 1500m, 2 len behind Miracolo Eclat with 52kg at $6.50. Sure to be right there at the business end.
