GOING: SP

Class 5 Handicap 1600m

Track: SOFT   Rain (Max: 15)    

Black Speed has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. DOCTOR CURLIN (4) recorded a strong maiden win over 1400m at this track last time, getting there by 6 lengths. Shaping up nicely and she is sure to go well. BLACK SPEED (9) finished 8 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1400m at this track after being prominent at the turn two-and-a-half weeks ago. Steps up in journey today. Has a high cruising speed. Among the leading chances. RIVERSTONE (1) turned in a fine effort to score by 1.5 lengths at today's course and distance last start in a nice progression on the first-up run. Meets some better types this time but he has the ability to test this field. GOD NIKE (2) is close to breaking through, last start finishing just half a length away in second over 1600m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish.
