GOING:

Race 6 1400m

Track:      

Plenty of pace with Z Merveille and Hamburg Hammer leading from Feather Sky. Z MERVEILLE (6) was in the firing line on the corner and ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1400m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. FEATHER SKY (1) started at $9.90 last time and ran below expectations, finishing sixth and beaten 15 lengths at this track over 1400m. Has a good record at this course and distance, including a win and five minor placings. Nicely placed to make amends. HAMBURG HAMMER (7) finished eighth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1400m at this track, beaten 3 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. GALBANUM (3) is yet to break through after 23 starts but not far off a win. Placed two back then missed the frame but was thereabouts last time over 1870m at this track. Has ability and rates among the chances.
