GOING:

Race 5 1500m

Track:      

A solid tempo is on the cards with Oreno Blues and Fort Portal pushing for the lead ahead of Kitano La Tour and Home And Dry. FORT PORTAL (5) turned in a solid run when resuming last start over this course and distance, finishing second and beaten only 0.8 lengths. Should be poised just off the lead and is likely to feature. HOME AND DRY (7) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when second over 1500m at this track. Perfectly placed and is sure to give this a mighty shake. ORENO BLUES (4) turned in a modest performance when 11th last time out over 1400m here after win at this track at the previous outing. Can bounce back. LUGE (1) was sixth in a 1500m contest at this track four weeks ago. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time.
