GOING:

Race 5 1500m

Track:      

Champagne Gold, Cool Marlowe and Massano can settle forward in a race lacking a designated leader. METHUSALEM (3) was well in commission last time but could only manage to finish seventh over 1500m at this track. Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. VIVIEN ONE (8) kept coming but just failed to pick up the winner last start over 920m here. Will derive great benefit from recent racing and is nicely placed to go one better. BELLA FLOR (10) failed to figure again last time over 1500m at this circuit, beaten 6 lengths into fifth. Can play a significant role. CHAMPAGNE GOLD (11) has been in the market at her last couple of runs since resuming but failed to threaten, the latest effort a modest sixth at this course over 1500m. Is better than that and has top-three prospects.
