GOING:

Race 7 1400m

Track:      

Solid tempo with Lord Ley Line leading from Longwood and Le Vent Vert. LORD LEY LINE (8) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 6 lengths over 1300m at this track. Has been a force to be reckoned with since joining the Uchikoshi stable. Looks set to extend his unbeaten run. LE VENT VERT (9) finished third at this track two runs back but was less effective last time over 1400m at this track, finishing in sixth. Has the ability to put the recent run behind him. LONGWOOD (6) was expected to do more last start when out of the placings over 1400m at this track. Finds a nice race and can make amends. MASANO VISION (1) ended up in fourth over 1400m at this track last time out. Well placed to bounce back.
