GOING:

Race 4 1600m

Track:      

Angelito and Danglard have the pace to take up the running at a solid tempo. ANGELITO (3) turned in a strong run last time when third at this track just eight days ago. Backing up quickly over the longer journey. Nice run last time and should be in the finish. RISING HEARTH (1) missed the frame last start when he was always well out of his ground over 1400m at this track, finishing sixth. Finds a nice race and can feature. BISHU BISHU (4) turned in a strong run last time when third at this track just eight days ago. Backing up quickly over the longer journey. Good effort last start and is a real danger. DANGLARD (6) finished seventh at his last appearance over 1400m at this track on December 31. This looks a nice race so expect him to finish closer.
