GOING:

Race 6 1300m

Track:      

From wide out Surprise One One can slide over and set up a genuine tempo. HOUYHNHNM (4) had been racing well with two consecutive placings before last start managing only seventh over 1400m at this track. Seiya Tatara stays aboard. Among the leading chances. ABENDSONNE (3) got the prize two runs ago at this track. Couldn't follow that up last time out when sixth over 1300m at this track, beaten 12 lengths. Finds an easier assignment and can return to winning ways. SURPRISE ONE ONE (10) did little and finished 9 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1300m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than his fourth at this track the run before which rates well. MIDNIGHT BIRD (8) was fine when sixth over 1300m at this track last time out. Capable of featuring prominently.
