GOING:

Race 5 1400m

Track:      

The speedy Sunrise Actor should find the front with Metal Metallica and Ordinaire on his heels. METAL METALLICA (7) finished just half a length from the winner in second last start over 1400m at this track after racing on the pace. Meets some better types this time but a big run is on the cards. TELEOS HIME (9) built on a nice second two starts back at this track with success over 1400m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by one length. This looks a sterner test than last time but on current form she is good enough to take this out. SUNRISE ACTOR (10) was safely held last time when fifth over today's course and distance. Has a wide gate to contend with again but stays in the mix. NISHINO FOUR LEAF (3) turned in a fine effort to win by 0.8 lengths at this course and distance last start in a much-improved run. Can go on with it.
