GOING:

Race 6 1400m

Track:      

A keen contest with Return Ace and Raise Me Up leading from Siivet. RETURN ACE (3) was well fancied when resuming last start over 1400m at this track when fourth, beaten 3 lengths. Worth another chance. MARTEE (8) showed good early speed last start before boxing on well and finishing third, beaten 2.75 lengths, over today's trip at this track. Placed to advantage and can take this out. RAISE ME UP (4) was sent out favourite but could only finish tenth over 1300m at this track last time. Prior to that had been racing well, collecting two minor placings on end. Drawn to enjoy a nice run just off the lead. Will be in this for a long way. SIIVET (7) was beaten 7 lengths into seventh over 1300m at this track two weeks ago. Better than recent efforts suggest.
