GOING:

Race 6 1400m

Track:      

A solid tempo on the cards with Llantrisant heading them off. HOLLYHOCK (7) raced on the speed last start over this course and distance and stuck on well to finish third. In the right race and is a key runner. LLANTRISANT (5) continued the solid form last start, finishing third at this track over today's trip. Should measure up again. ORENTANO (8) finished out of the money when sixth over 1400m at this track two weeks ago. Makoto Okabe gets the best out of this five-year-old entire. Likely improver. DREIST (1) was prominent at the corner and finished third last time over 1400m at this track when resuming from a spell. Will trim down second-up. Yet to miss the placings from five starts at this circuit. In the right race and is sure to be prominent.
