GOING:

Race 6 1400m

Track:      

Point Forward to take charge ahead of Discerning at a good tempo. DISCERNING (1) was in a different class last time, registering a dominant 3 lengths win over 1300m at this track to make it two in succession. Can play a major role. POINT FORWARD (6) has strung together a couple of wins at this track, the latest on April 19 over 1400m when he scored by 3 lengths. Worth serious consideration. NAMURA TEDDIE (8) missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track when fourth. Up to the challenge. NAVARONE (5) last start finished tenth at this track over 1400m. Facing a tougher assignment but still in the mix on best form.
