GOING:

Race 6 1500m

Track:      

Papita has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. SKILL HUNTER (9) is close to a win after a string of minor placings, the latest when third over 1400m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. PAPITA (5) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing third last time out over 1400m at this track. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. FOR YOU RUN RUN (8) turned in an eye-catching run over this journey last time, settling out the back before winding up late to finish 8 lengths away in fifth at this track. Sure to be winding up late. RIGID WINGS (7) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 13 lengths away in tenth over 1500m at this track. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
