GOING: G

NORMAN CONQUEROR HANDICAP 1600m Track: GOOD
No noted leader but Big Red and Chilli Baba will be prominent. LAUGH TALE (1) is only 6 starts into his career and was just 1L off the winner at this track and trip last time out when running on strongly from the rear. He continues to improve with racing in Hong Kong and Bowman sticking with the gelding is a positive sign. Drawn wide again, but looks the one to beat on recent form. FLYING MOJITO (4) jumped favourite last start over this course and distance and only finished 1L off the winner when running on from midfield. Racing well without winning of late but looks to get every chance under Atzeni who strikes at 25% when riding for Hall. He's the main danger. JOY OF SPRING (9) rattled home to just miss last time out, continuing his good run of form this time in work. While he is likely to get a long way back, his recent efforts rate highly and if things fall his way, he can shed the maiden tag. STRONGEST BOY (5) disappointed last time out and is much better than that. Can bounce back.
