GOING:

Race 6 1600m

Track:      

Sym Armatura and Shita Bed to set a strong tempo joined by Grune Berg. WORLD FOUNTAIN (2) pushed forward and went on to record a determined win last start by a neck over 1600m at this track. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot salute. VOGUE ALTAIR (6) is back at the races for the first time since May 20. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1600m at this track. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. REVIVE MAILLARD (8) is putting together some solid results. Finished third at this track two starts back then scored by 2 lengths last time out over 1600m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. GRUNE BERG (9) is back at the races for the first time since December 31. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1600m at this track. Comes here with top-three claims.
