GOING:

Race 5 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo from Sengokubusho leading Luxe Warrior. SENGOKUBUSHO (4) is unbeaten this campaign after two appearances, the latest win coming over 1580m at this track. Had plenty on his rivals last time and will go close again. HAYAIMONO GACHI (8) settled well back last start and never threatened when sixth over 1800m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. LONELY PLANET (3) turned in a better effort last time to finish in the money over 1800m at this track. Sure to go very well. SHADOW ISLE (6) has been out of the winner's list for a while, last start finishing fourth at this track over 1800m. Capable on his day and can contest for a place.
