Solid pace with Demon Slayer finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. CHOPASNI (9) is racing well, scoring two back at this track before finishing 1.3 lengths from the winner in second last time over 1400m at this track. Record at this journey is impressive with four wins and four placings from 11 runs and will be ready to run a big race today. NINEN F GUMI (2) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish 3.5 lengths away in second over 1400m at this track. Drawn to enjoy a nice run just off the speed. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot salute. JUSTIN TRUENO (10) finished fourth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1400m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. DEMON SLAYER (4) did very well to fill a minor placing when resuming at this track but raced below expectations last time over 1400m at this track, finishing tenth and beaten 15 lengths. Best figures measure up nicely. Solid top-three prospects.
