GOING:

Race 4 1400m

Track:      

Havana Rose to take charge ahead of Champion Ribbon at a solid tempo. HAVANA ROSE (4) showed good early dash and led throughout to score by half a length last time out over 1300m at this track. Winning rider Shoji Nishimori stays aboard. Should be in the finish. KIMON NICHOLAS (1) is a 38-start maiden who finished eighth at his most recent outing over 1300m at this track. Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. CHAMPION RIBBON (9) finished third at this track two runs back but didn't measure up last time over 1400m at this track, finishing 6 lengths back in seventh. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. SEKISHO IDAI (7) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 8 lengths away in ninth over 1400m at this track. Capable of featuring prominently.
