GOING:

Race 6 1200m

Track:      

A few sit handy but there won't be a great deal of early pressure. ATTRACT RUN (4) doesn't win out of turn but ran a strong race last time out over 1200m at this track, finishing second and beaten 0.8 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. UNSURPASSED (7) did a great job to score by 0.8 lengths over today's course and distance last start in a much improved run. Finds a tougher race but he has the ability to test this field. S K CAT (5) returned from a spell three weeks ago when she was beaten 2.25 lengths into fourth over 1200m at this track. Fitter this time. Hard to beat in this suitable race. SUN SNOW WHITE (6) made progress last time out, finishing 4.5 lengths from the winner in third over 1000m at this track. Placed to advantage so anticipating another big run.
