GOING:

Race 5 1500m

Track:      

Reasonable tempo with Tre Vite probably leading but a few others should keep her honest. NOBUTOMO (4) was sent out favourite last time and scored by 4 lengths at this track. Has a good record at this track with two wins and three minor placings. Top chance again. ADVANCE DREAM (6) has recorded nine minor placings from 12 runs this campaign. Settled a long way back before working home in good style to finish a neck from the winner in second at the latest outing over 1400m at this track. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. CHONO YONI MAU (2) was in the money two starts back at this track but couldn't back it up last time when sixth, beaten 6 lengths, at this track over 1500m. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. VEHEMENT BLAST (3) hit the frame two starts ago at this track but ran below par last time when ninth over 1400m at this track. Has her share of talent and can do a lot better.
