GOING:

Race 5 1600m

Track:      

Expecting a strong tempo with Keiryu O, Kibaru Star and Nac Jasper going forward ahead of Aqua Jet and Meisho Towani. AQUA JET (4) turned in a fine effort to score by 4 lengths at this track and distance last start in a much improved run. This doesn't look as hard so he is likely to play a big role. KEIRYU O (2) did a great job to score by a neck over this course and distance last start in a much improved run. Likely to be there at the finish again. NAC JASPER (12) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish 0.8 lengths away in third over 1600m at this track. Tricky draw to overcome but does have good gate speed. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. KIBARU STAR (7) turned in a fine effort to score by 3 lengths at today's track and distance last start in a far better run. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run.
