GOING:

Race 5 1400m

Track:      

Expecting Goemool to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. INGOT BIRD (7) strode forward early last start from his wide draw and was never headed, scoring by 2 lengths at this track over 1400m. Expected to take some stopping again. GOEMOOL (1) showed good early muster and fought on to finish third last start over 1400m at this track. Will take advantage of the good draw. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. TWO WING (2) turned in a fine effort to win by a nose at this track and distance last start in a far better run. Likely to be there at the finish again. T M DAI STAR (5) could only manage to finish sixth at her latest appearance over 1400m at this track. Among the better chances in what looks a nice race.
