GOING: G

THE LONGINES CUP (HANDICAP) 1200m Track: GOOD
Good early pace from Mega Bonus, Riding High and Mighty Commander going forward to hold out some other speedy customers. HEALTHY HEALTHY (6) got too far back last start but did close off well over the 1000m journey at this track. Now back up in trip where he was narrowly beaten two back and Purton returns to the saddle. He's a third-up winner in the past and he looks ready to get back to winning ways. BRAVE STAR (1) stuck on well to get over the top and score first-up here. He needs a touch of luck form the outside alley, though Ho knows him well and if he can run up to his recent efforts, he'll take plenty of catching. LUCKY ARCHANGEL (5) ran on strongly from the back last start to be 1.8L off the winner. He usually improves with a run under his belt and he looks to get a nice run in transit again. Can put his best foot forward. BEAUTY INFINITY (4) can fire fresh on the back of two trials coming in.
