GOING:

Race 5 1400m

Track:      

Little early speed on offer so Al Qudra should be prominent. GRAN RIDGE LINE (6) ran on strongly only to just miss last start over 1500m at this track. Ready to go one better. AL QUDRA (4) has been in the placings at her last two starts, finishing third last time when she was prominent throughout over 1500m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. LANCE OF FAITH (12) is a nine-start maiden who finished sixth at her most recent appearance over 1500m at this track. Suited in this line up and is among the better hopes. QUEEN'S GANACHE (9) finished third at this track two runs back but was less effective last time over 1500m at this track, finishing 9 lengths back in sixth. Has her share of ability and can do a lot better.
