GOING:

Race 5 1400m

Track:      

Plenty of speed engaged with Nectaris, Star President and Mimikochan going forward ahead of Investor and O K Sonic. STAR PRESIDENT (6) is in winning form after scoring as favourite last time out by 1.5 lengths over 1400m at this track. Boasts five wins here and is likely to feature. NECTARIS (3) hit the frame two starts ago at this track but ran below par last time when sixth over 1400m at this track. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including two wins, and can run well. MIMIKOCHAN (7) turned in a much better effort last time out to score by 1.5 lengths over 1600m at this track. Solid top-three prospects. INVESTOR (10) was safely held last time when a disappointing tenth at today's course and distance. Has a wide gate to contend with again but look for an improved run.
