GOING: N

4RACING.TV OPEN MAIDEN 1600m

Track: AW     3m out at the 421m mark  

Good early tempo with several going forward, primarily Elusive Mata, Ice Cap and Beijing Boulevard. ELUSIVE MATA (1) may have cost herself winning last time as she shifted away from the whip over the closing stages. She meets the right field here and if keeping on a straight line she should shed her maiden tag. BEIJING BOULEVARD (3) finished third last time out over 1600m at this track, making it two career placings. Has been in the frame at all two runs over this distance. Has each-way claims. ICE CAP (2) raced from a handy position over 1200m last time but found one too good on the day. She should like the rise to the mile and Craig Zackey may be able to coax that little bit extra out of her when it matters most. GALAXY MOMENT (7) stayed on well when third of nine over 1900m last time when sent out at long odds. She drops back in distance and is in the mix.
