GOING:

Race 4 1400m

Track:      

Expecting a strong gallop with A Shin Drago and Needless To Say taking up the running over Fast Lane. FAST LANE (8) went fast early and went on to score by 3 lengths when resuming last time out over 1400m at this track. Can get the job done again. DEL MIO CUORE (4) missed the frame last start when fifth over 1400m at this track. Best figures measure up and is well placed to feature. NEEDLESS TO SAY (2) last start finished fourth at this track over 1600m after being prominent at the bend. Placed to advantage and can feature in the finish. STELLA VERDE (7) has filled a minor placing at her last three outings, most recently when second over 1400m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can play a big role.

Returns from a 29-day let-up. Most recently 2nd of 8 at this track on May 1 over 1400m, 4 len behind All Steal with 57kg at $9.20. The race before that failed to make an impression; 6th of 8 at this track on April 18 over 1400m, 9 len behind Orentano with 58kg at $1.60. Finds a few better today. Can't recommend.
