GOING:

Race 7 1200m

Track:      

Expecting a solid pace with Queen's Mont Blanc, Lion Selas and Owsla Flag leading the charge. BENINO GENERAL (7) did a great job to score by one length over today's course and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Likely to be there at the finish again. TAISEI SURGE (3) wasted no time getting off the mark as favourite on debut over 1200m at this track two weeks ago. Has plenty of upside and should go on with it. QUEEN'S MONT BLANC (5) produced a reasonable effort to finish 1.5 lengths away in third last start over 1000m here following a win on debut at this track. Promising filly who looks hard to beat. OWSLA FLAG (9) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track over 1200m. Making headway and likely to measure up again.
