GOING:

Race 5 1500m

Track:      

In the absence of noted leaders, Kitokito and Ka Noa Lady may be the ones to set a moderate tempo. DAZZLING SKY (6) failed to live up to market expectations last start when out of the placings over 1500m at this track, beaten 5.5 lengths. Where there's smoke there's fire and is a likely improver with strong prospects. JAVERT (9) drifted back over 1500m here last time before winding up late to finish fourth, beaten 2.25 lengths. Expected to measure up. GOLD AVANTI (5) finished fourth at his last appearance over 1400m at this circuit on June 30. Among the chances in what looks a nice race for him. KITOKITO (8) was prominent through the early and middle stages last time out before fading to finish fifth over 1400m at this venue. Leading prospect on best form.
