Race 5 1400m

Track:      

A solid tempo on the cards with Ho O Pursuit taking charge. HO O PURSUIT (3) honest entire who has a top-three strike-rate of almost 50%. Found one better last start at this track over 1400m. Looks very tough to beat. ESPELHAR (9) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when a nose away in second over 1400m at this track. Nicely placed to take this out. WIN RAMESSES (5) is a consistent performer with four minor placings from five starts this campaign. 1.5 lengths from the winner in third last time out over 1400m at this track. In the mix. JUST A PARTY (7) made progress last time out, finishing third over 1400m at this track. This looks a good race for him and he is one of the key runners.
