GOING:

Race 5 1580m

Track:      

Just a moderate tempo headed by Teruken Ren Gray, Pure Kisho and Cosmo Finesse. MBURI MUGOBOKA (1) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at this track, finishing second and only a neck from the winner at the end of 1400m. Nicely placed to take this out. TERUKEN REN GRAY (5) improved last start to finish third over 1400m at this track after being prominent at the bend. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. WING COMMANDER (2) was always well back over this course and distance last time and never threatened in the straight, beaten 13 lengths into seventh. This is a nice drop in grade so he is set to turn things around. COSMO FINESSE (4) progressed nicely last time out to finish just half a length from the winner in second over 1580m at this track. Well placed to run top-three again.
