GOING:

Race 5 1400m

Track:      

Not much early speed of note and Smart Asher and Pretty Punk may find themselves setting a steady tempo. PRETTY PUNK (4) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track over 1400m. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. CHATEAU HAWKBILL (3) was safely held in better company two runs back then appreciated the easier grade last time, scoring over 1400m at this track. Nicely placed again and is a definite winning hope. SMART ASHER (8) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 800m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. G T OKA (5) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1400m at this track. Nicely placed to feature in the finish.
