GOING:

Race 7 1400m

Track:      

Plenty of pace from the outset with Del Mio Cuore and Gregg leading the charge. LUXE BRILLANTE (8) is in top form with two wins on end, the most recent an effortless 7-length victory over 1400m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Great chance to extend the sequence. DEL MIO CUORE (9) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1400m at this track after being in contention all the way. Will be handy in the running despite the tricky draw and can feature in the finish. MIX UP (1) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago here but was less impressive last time out when fourth over 1400m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. GREGG (4) has been thereabouts since getting off the mark three runs back, the latest effort a solid second over 1400m at this track. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset and must be respected.

Racing well. At the latest run 4th of 8 at this track on May 8 over 1400m, 15 len behind Luxe Brillante with 54kg at $39.90. The run before that won by 1.0 len at this track April 26 over 1400m defeating Mion carrying 54kg at $2.10. Strong each-way hope with the assistance of the inside gate.

Going well. Last start set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 8 at this track on April 26 over 1400m, 0.8 len behind Taisei Quest carrying 56kg at $6. Before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 10 at this track on April 17 over 1400m, 5.5 len behind Namura Daryl carrying 56kg at $2.30. Genuine hope on latest effort.
