GOING:

Race 4 1400m

Track:      

In the absence of noted leaders, Egg Hunt and Champion Ribbon may be the ones to set a moderate tempo. EGG HUNT (2) failed to live up to expectations over 1300m at this track last time out when in the market. That followed a good third the run prior. Looks well placed and can atone. YAMANO IMPACT (1) finished fourth at his most recent outing over 1300m at this track. This offers him a great chance of breaking through. JO COMODO (7) saluted here two runs ago then last time out finished second over 1300m at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths. Key runner. CHAMPION RIBBON (4) missed the frame last start over 1300m at this track when fifth. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time.
