GOING:

Race 7 1400m

Track:      

Good tempo expected with Hollyhock, Hiruno Glasgow and Home Run Batter rolling forward. SEVEN THREE ROSE (4) is close to breaking through after three consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1400m at this track after being in contention all the way. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out. HOME RUN BATTER (8) was well in commission last start over 1400m at this track when sixth, beaten 7 lengths. Form here at this distance is sound with two wins and two minor placings from five starts. Sure to run well. GOODBYE ISAAC (1) drifted back over 1580m here last time before winding up late to finish fourth, beaten 4.5 lengths. One to watch for in the concluding stages. HOLLYHOCK (7) didn't make an impact at her last run before going for a spell on November 27, finishing sixth and beaten 42 lengths over 1600m at this track. Definite top-three chance.
