Race 5 1200m Track: |

---|---|---|---|---|
From their good gates Anela Kaikamahine, Starting Now and U V Cut will likely vie for the lead in a keen pace battle. STARTING NOW (6) broke through for his maiden win over 1200m at this track last time, scoring comfortably. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and a bold showing is expected. ANELA KAIKAMAHINE (7) comes here fresh from an all-the-way win by 4 lengths over today's journey at this track on September 16. One of the top chances again. PALE MOON (4) was in the money two starts back at this track then missed the frame but was not too far away last time over 1200m at this track. Solid top-three chance. U V CUT (3) returns after nine months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a eighth over 1200m at this track. Nicely placed and can figure in the finish.
