GOING:

Race 5 1600m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with Blue Applause leading the way. BLUE APPLAUSE (2) is resuming today. Was less than a length from the winner in second at this track on debut before breaking through for a strong win over 1600m at this track last start. Capable of further improvement and can go on with the job. AL JAHILI (3) is yet to break through in five runs. Finished ninth at his last appearance over 1400m at this track on September 16. This offers him a great chance of breaking through. KUROMAKU (4) has strung together a couple of wins at this track, the latest on September 16 over 1400m when he scored by 3 lengths. Winning rider Ryotaro Oka retains the mount. Nicely placed to add to the outstanding run of form. MIKKI EAGLE (8) pushed forward and was a determined winner by 2 lengths over 1400m at this track last time out. Not to be discounted.
