GOING: G

HARBOUR VIEW HANDICAP 1200m Track: GOOD
Good early pressure for top spot with Sweet Diamond or Aurora Lady likely to take up the running. UNISON (5) wasn't far away on debut when only 2L off the winner at this course and distance. Andrea Atzeni takes the ride now and there's already been a winner come out of that race. He maps to get every chance once again and with improvement likely, he'll be very hard to beat. KING ECCELLENTE (1) drops back into C4 today following a 3L defeat over this track and trip in tougher company last time out. Hugh Bowman takes the ride today and he maps beautifully from the draw. He's been competitive at a higher level and looks a great chance coming back in grade. AURORA LADY (3) led them up last start at this track and trip as favourite and couldn't hold on, beaten just 1L. Zac Purton remains in the saddle and suspect they'll roll forward again from the draw. Sure to be in the finish once again. LYRICAL MOTION (2) has performed well when fresh in the past and is worth including.
