GOING: S

Race 5 1400m

Track: SOFT      

Expecting Dashing Man to lead Twilight at just a moderate tempo. BEL BALT (5) resumes from a spell of four months. Looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 1400m at this track. Can make a winning return. TWILIGHT (10) resumed from a spell last start with a sound second over 1400m at this track after being prominent at the corner. Placed to advantage and can take this out. DASHING MAN (2) finished third last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 10 lengths. In the right race and is sure to prove hard to beat. PIERRE AMAZON (11) is a 11-start maiden who is knocking on the door, the latest effort a solid fourth at this track over 1600m after she gave away a big start on straightening. Finds a suitable race and can find the winner's circle.
