GOING:

Class Open Weight for Age 2000m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 23)    

Solid tempo with Global Hit driving forward f, joined by Miracle Marine and Tuhonui Banseok pushing on from closer draws. GLOBAL HIT (12) has three wins and two minor placings from six races this preparation. Found a couple better last start in the G2 Al Maktoum Classic at Meydan Dirt over 2000m. Perfectly placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. SUCCESS BAEKPA (9) got the job done last start at this track over this distance after he was prominent at the corner. Has a strong record at this trip, scoring two times from four starts. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Likely to feature. SPEED YOUNG (15) is knocking on the door after just missing last time over 2000m at this track. Commendable record at this trip with a win and six minor placings and is right in contention. YUMENO HONOO (3) resumes after finishing in the money over 1600m at Kochi at his latest appearance on February 16. Has a strong record when fresh, claiming four wins from six runs and won first up last prep, he is among the leading chances.
