|---|---|---|---|---|
|
My Golly Molly, Fateful Day and Alingalonga to take up the running at a decent tempo. FATEFUL DAY (2) found winning form last start when scoring by half a length over 1400m at this track. Looks well placed to repeat the hat-trick. KINGDOM OF HEAVEN (4) ran a better race last start to finish a close second of 13 over 1600m at Fairview after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Well placed in this line-up and has solid each-way claims. NO PLACE LIKE HOME (5) finished 3.5 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1400m at this track four weeks ago as the favourite. Has a good record at this trip with a win and two placings and is right in contention. ALINGALONGA (3) resumes from a spell. Raced below par at his only appearance last prep when fifth of nine over 1600m at Fairview. Well worth considering.
