GOING:

Race 6 850m

Track:      

Moderate tempo expected with Topiary Garden likely to find the front over Bee Spirit and Varuna. TOPIARY GARDEN (3) showed good early speed last start over today's journey at this track before finishing second, beaten 2.5 lengths. Hard to beat in this suitable race. VARUNA (8) has been in the placings his past two starts, finishing third over 850m at this track last time out. Has the right credentials. YAMANIN EPURER (5) missed the placings two runs back then didn't feature last start when 4.5 lengths away in fifth over 850m at this track. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. O SHIN DIA (10) made progress last time out, finishing 3.5 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 850m at this track. Capable of featuring prominently.
