GOING: G

WONG NAI CHUNG GAP HANDICAP 1200m

Track: GOOD      

Plenty of pace with Nebraskan and Winning Now up front, pressured by Vigor Eye. NEBRASKAN (7) made it back-to-back victories last time out when scoring an all-the-way 2L win as the race favourite. He rises in weight off that effort, but he was simply too good there and this shapes similarly. Can go on with the job. VIGOR EYE (5) won narrowly two back before a disappointing effort last time out. He's been back to the trials since where Purton was on board and he sticks with him today. Still has some upside and can bounce back to his best. THE HEIR (1) flew home to win at this course and distance last start, scoring by 1.5L. Moreira remains in the saddle and this sets up nicely for him once again. Can repeat the dose without surprising. BRIGHT DAY (2) was too good last time out and is not to be discounted.
