GOING:

P3 RACING SYNDICATE D STAKES 1600m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 14)    

Keen exchange with Midway and Ischyro pressing hard while Royal Dawn also kicks up. MIDWAY (3) has finished third in his last three starts. He raced from a handy position over 1800m last time, moved up before getting outrun late. He is likely to get a good run in the running form the inside draw and can return to winning form. COSMIC RHYTHM (12) dead-heated for third with the top selection last time. The pair meet on the same weight terms today and there should not be much separating them at the finish. MELA STRENGTH (8) was running on well when third over 1400m last time. The blinkers remain fitted and the booking of Richard Fourie is encouraging. If not too far out of his ground turning for home, he should be fighting out the finish. SAINT BRIGID (11) performed well last time at this track, finishing second over 1400m. Looks well placed and is a must include in exotic bets.
