GOING: N

Class 4 Handicap 1200m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 19)   True  

Solid pace with Road To Ace finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. ROAD TO ACE (10) had a bit on his rivals last time with an impressive 11 lengths win over 1200m at this track. Has a formidable record at this journey with two wins and two placings from five starts and should be hard to stop. CRYSTAL MULGYEOL (4) ran well below her best last time over 1400m at this track, beaten 5 lengths into sixth at $5. Drawn to stalk the leaders. Best form puts her right in this. ARCHER HEART (5) made progress last time out, finishing 2.5 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1200m at this track after being in the firing line on the corner. Tackling a more suitable race so he is all set to build on that latest effort. BARAM DAERO (1) raced on the speed from the outset and went to score by half a length last time over 1200m at this track. Should stalk the leading division from his low draw. Among the top-three contenders.
