GOING:

Race 8 1500m

Track:      

Expecting Helena Universe to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. BOLD RAI (2) improved last time out, finishing third at the end of 1500m at this track. Meets some better types this time but another big run is on the cards. FAIRLY HIGH (4) performed well last start when third at this track over 1700m. Expected to be in the mix. HIGH GOOD ACE (9) has been in the market at his last couple of starts but hasn't made an impression, last start running eighth at this track. Rates a strong each way chance. A SHIN ZETA (12) was below par last time when out of the placings at this track over 1500m. Has drawn wide but has pace and can cross. In the mix.
