GOING:

Race 4 1400m

Track:      

Looks a decent tempo with Aster Decagon, Ripley and Almaza Amir leading the charge. ALMAZA AMIR (4) won his maiden over this course and distance last start, getting the verdict by 2 lengths. Shaping up nicely and he is likely to feature in the finish again. POWER MCQUEEN (10) won his maiden four starts back and is ready to salute again after a string of recent placings, the latest when second over 1500m at this track. Yet to miss the top three here in four starts. Will be hard to stop. RIPLEY (5) improved sharply on her fourth two starts back with success as public elect over 1500m at this track four weeks ago, getting home by 1.5 lengths. Can salute again. REINE DU SABLE (1) had been in great form winning two on end before finishing second last time out over 1500m at this track. Major player.
