Race 5 1500m Track: AW |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Plenty of early pace with Smoke Flavor and Air Star Joy to vie for the lead, pressured by Yoruno Teio and Surmount. ONE TARGET (9) couldn't have been more impressive first up last start when he scored dominantly over 1500m at this track. Open to plenty of improvement and looks sure to be in the finish again. SMOKE FLAVOR (5) has won three from four and is unbeaten in two runs this campaign,. Rates strongly and right in the mix again. GAIA EXPRESS (8) got the prize two runs ago at this track. Not as effective last time out when third at this track, after being in the firing line on the bend. Perfectly placed and is sure to bounce back to form. SURMOUNT (6) was easily accounted for when fourth last start s after a good first-up win at this track. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
