GOING:

Race 6 1750m

Track:      

Aeno Brian has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. SILVER GHOST (1) has scored at her last two starts, most recently by 5 lengths over 1400m at this track as favourite. That continued the solid form this campaign, with two wins and two minor placings from five starts. Leading player again. AENO BRIAN (5) returned to winning form as favourite last start, scoring by one length over today's journey at this track. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including two wins and four placings. Among the leading chances. COSMO FARNESE (2) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second last start over 1750m at this track. Steps up a level but he is up to the task. DANON TURKISH (8) has been racing well without winning. Last start finished third, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 1750m at this track. Genuine performer so he cannot be underestimated.
