GOING:

Race 6 1500m

Track:      

There should be a bit of early pressure with Mccloskey and Attlee Tesoro going forward in advance of Aratama Ship and Paddington Boots. ATTLEE TESORO (5) has switched yards since finishing seventh two weeks ago over 1500m at this track. Can feature on best form. MCCLOSKEY (8) missed the frame last time when fifth at this track. Prior to that had been in the money on two consecutive occasions. Terrific chance to return to form. PADDINGTON BOOTS (1) produced a good run two starts back to finish third but was below par last time when out of the placings at this track over 1500m. Finds a nice race and can make amends. ATMOS JIBRIL (11) raced below his best last time when seventh over 1500m here. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time.
