GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with the speedy Hakusan Antares leading the way. GREAT MOON (4) has been in great form recently, the latest effort a dominant win by 7 lengths over 1400m at this track. Likely to be in the finish again. HAKUSAN ANTARES (7) showed good early pace over 1400m at this track last time and kept going to score by a neck. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. DAPHNIS (5) turned in a strong run two starts ago at this track then failed to back it up over 1500m at this track last time, beaten 4 lengths into fifth. Looks better placed over this shorter trip so worth forgiving. CRAPE MYRTLE (9) progressed nicely last time out to finish just half a length from the winner in second over 1400m at this track. Another forward showing is anticipated.
