GOING:

Race 7 1200m

Track:      

Abundant pace from Ad Libitum, Cry Tonight and Kill Connection vying for the lead with Avantgarde on their backs. PIKO PINK (5) returns after three-and-a-half months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a seventh over 1400m at this track. Commenced last prep with a minor placing at this track over 1400m. Can make a winning return. S K EAGLE (10) did a great job to score by 4 lengths over today's course and distance last start in a far better run. Taking on a better field but he is capable of another big run. RYUNO WORLD (11) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing third last time over 1200m at this track. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. ASPHODELOS (1) was below her best last time, finishing tenth and beaten 13 lengths over 1400m at this track. Finds a nice race and can atone.
