GOING:

Race 4 1400m

Track:      

Moderate pace only with Kahowa Netemate leading Nirvana. M O KOMACHI (1) broke back into the top-three last start when second at this track over 1400m. An inside gate is a big advantage here and can feature. KAHOWA NETEMATE (5) was out of the money last start when she settled well back over 820m at this track, finishing ninth. Should be peaking now and is ready to show what he can do. CAMPANADAS (8) ran a better race and finished fifth last time out over 1400m at this track. Well placed and in the mix. A T TACHYON (12) missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, finishing eighth. Finds a nice race and can bounce back.
