GOING: S

Class Open Weight for Age 2000m

Track: SOFT   Clouds (Max: 19)   True  

Fast tempo assured with Speed Young, Wonderful Slew and Global Hit going at each other early in the piece. GLOBAL HIT (14) proved too strong last start and scored by 0.8 lengths over 2000m at this track. Yet to miss the frame in three starts over this course and distance. Should be prominent despite the awkward gate. Sure to be in the finish. NUT PLAY (3) knuckled down strongly to get within 0.8 lengths of the winner in second last start over 2000m at this track. Record here is impressive with six wins from 15 starts. Right in this. TUHONUI BANSEOK (7) is a handy six-year-old entire who returned from a break last start and finished 1.5 lengths away in third over 2000m at this track. Leading player. WONDERFUL SLEW (4) is third up today. Turned in a better run last time when second, beaten 0.8 lengths, at this track over 1800m. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Deserves respect on best figures.
