GOING:

Race 7 1400m

Track:      

A race that lacks early pressure on paper. ANOTHER VITA (7) was an impressive winner last time over 1500m at this track, stalking the pace before lengthening nicely to score by 2.5 lengths. A repeat of the latest can see him take a hand in the finish. BEST IS ASK (5) fought on for third last start over 1400m at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Likely improver with strong prospects. ROUGH SEA (3) has been in the money at his last couple of runs, the latest when second over 1500m at this track. Should be right in this. KICK ARTHUR (4) was an impressive winner last time over 1500m at this track, leading throughout and putting 4 lengths on her rivals. Racing well & cannot be underestimated.
