GOING:

Race 7 1400m

Track:      

O K Thunder to take charge ahead of Sri Devi at a good tempo. COOL CRAVATE (8) finished 1.5 lengths behind the winner in second over 1400m at this track last start after lifting strongly to score two runs back. Good enough to take this out. O K THUNDER (3) has switched yards since finishing third five-and-a-half weeks ago over 1400m at Nagoya. Has ability and should be right in the finish. LITTLE IDOL (7) raced on the speed and dug deep to score by one length at this track and distance last start to maintain her good form of late. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. ROYAL DEVISER (5) hit the frame two starts ago at this track but ran below par last time when seventh and beaten 8 lengths over 1400m at this track. Nicely placed to bounce back.
