GOING:

Race 3 1500m

Track:      

From the inside gate Rei Natia can show speed with Aspro Gaia and Toppi Go prominent. REI NATIA (1) missed the frame first-up but looks ready to win now after two straight placings, the latest over 1500m at this track. Should be poised just off the lead. Best figures should see him run well. TOPPI GO (12) closed last campaign with back-to-back placings, the last of which was at this track ten months ago. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Expecting a bold showing. ASPRO GAIA (8) finished third at this track two runs back but was less effective last time over 1500m at this track, finishing back in 11th. Nicely placed to bounce back. COOL MARLOWE (10) did a great job to score by one length over this course and distance last start in a far better effort. Has his share of ability and finds a suitable race.
