GOING:

Race 7 1600m

Track:      

Moderate tempo with Crack Of Dawn leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. CRACK OF DAWN (5) went forward from the low draw last time before fading to finish fourth over 1300m at this track. Well placed and could be tough to rein in. GHOST BUSTER (1) finished fourth last time out over 1300m at this track. Finds a nice race this time and looks hard to beat. MATSURIDA CHOPIN (10) missed the placings last start when ninth over 1300m at this track. Well placed and in the mix. RINNO LEGEND (8) made progress last time out, finishing third over 1300m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role.
