GOING: N

Class 5 Handicap 1200m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 36)    

Universal and Royal Plus should set a strong clip. UNIVERSAL (6) was an effortless winner on debut over 1000m at this track, scoring by 4 lengths. Will appreciate the drop in the weights. Should be prominent from the outset. Expected to be in the finish. MENI WIN (10) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at this track, finishing second and only 2.5 lengths from the winner at the end of 1200m after being prominent at the bend. Nicely placed to take this out. ROYAL PLUS (8) finished seventh two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1200m at this track, beaten 2 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. BREEDO TROPHY (4) has switched yards since finishing sixth four weeks ago over 1200m at this track. Has place claims.
