GOING: SP

Class 4 Handicap 1400m

Track: SOFT   Rain (Max: 12)    

Just a moderate tempo headed by Supreme Socks, Taekhan and Smiling Prince. SMILING PRINCE (11) was on the speed from the rails draw last start and battled on well to finish second over 1400m at this track. Likely improver with bright prospects. HIGH RUNNER (5) booted up from the inside draw to race on the speed only to be claimed late and finish 4 lengths away in fourth last start over 1400m at this track. Will go forward and is expected to be in the finish. HEART K (6) made progress last time out, finishing 5 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1400m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. TAEKHAN (8) was beaten 5.5 lengths into fourth in a 1400m contest at this track at his latest appearance. Nicely placed to find some form.
