GOING:

Race 3 1500m

Track:      

Daphnis, Land Sur and Andare can set a genuine tempo. ANDARE (5) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second last start over 1400m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. PURPLE HAZE (1) didn't feature last start when fifth over 1500m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. PINAKA (3) turned in an eye-catching run over this journey last time, settling out the back before winding up late to finish 1.4 lengths away in fifth at this track. Could prove tough to hold out. MJUK REGULUS (2) was in the money two starts back but couldn't back it up last time when eighth at this track over 1500m. Nicely placed to feature.
