---|---|---|---|---|
Plenty of early pace on show, particularly from Syx Hotfix, Spin Doctor and Central City. CENTRAL CITY (3) improved last time out, finishing 6 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 2400m at Fairview. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. DOWNING SEVEN (6) was comfortably accounted for when third last time out over 2000m at Fairview, beaten 5.5 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. JUAN CARLOS (5) was well fancied last start over 2400m at Fairview when second, beaten 2.75 lengths. Worth another chance. PAINITE (7) hit the frame two starts ago at this track but ran below par last time when sixth and beaten 7 lengths over 2000m at Fairview. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
