GOING:

Race 4 1400m

Track:      

Slick pace with Hakkyoi finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. GO MAX (10) scored two runs back then was popular with punters last time but could only manage to finish fifth over 1600m at this track after he was prominent at the corner. Has started three times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. VIADUCT (8) was an impressive winner last time over 1600m at this track, leading throughout and putting a gap on his rivals. One of the top chances again. HAKKYOI (2) improved sharply on his ninth two starts back at this track with a win over 1300m at this track four weeks ago, getting home by 1.5 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. Nicely placed to feature in the finish again. GRAY STORM (9) finished 8 lengths behind the winner in ninth place when resuming over 1300m last start at this track. Unbeaten in two starts when second up. Likely improver.
