GOING: F

Class 5 Handicap 1300m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 27)    

Viva Cheongsu and Captain Time have the early speed and take leading roles. CAPTAIN TIME (9) saluted at this track two runs ago. Fair effort last time out when in contention on the corner before finishing third over 1400m at this track, beaten 0.8 lengths. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot make amends. HAYAN TAEYANG (1) won her maiden over this course and distance last start, getting the verdict by 3 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Looks well placed and she looks sure to be in the mix. VELVETY (3) missed the placings when resuming two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1200m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. VIVA CHEONGSU (7) returns after 11 weeks in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a fourth over 1400m at this track. Rates highly on best form and should be in the mix.
