GOING:

Race 6 1200m

Track:      

Expecting Chun Beam to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint course. SPRIT (7) led from start to finish last time out at this track over 1200m on May 19. Can go back-to-back. ADARMALIK (10) was well beaten in better company two back then tackled an easier race last time when a 7-length winner over 1200m at this track. In winning form and expected to run well again. BUTRAGUENO (6) is knocking on the door after just missing last time over 1400m at this track. Well placed and should be in the finish. KOBAI (4) won at this track two starts ago but was below her best at a more recent appearance, finishing ninth over 1400m here. Suitably placed so expecting a better run this time.
