GOING:

Race 8 1300m

Track:      

Anticipate a moderate tempo is a race devoid of recognised speedsters. FILIUS ONE (7) was comfortably accounted for when fourth last time out over 1400m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. That followed a win here at the previous outing. He can bounce straight back into the winners' circle here. LOGI SABBIARE (1) hit the frame two starts ago at this track but ran below par last time when finishing well back here over 1750m. Has a good record at this course and distance, including four wins. Finds a suitable assignment and can bounce back. HERACLES KNOT (3) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing well back when starting at $2. He is much better than that and can make amends. Follow your money. A SHIN NOCTURNE (11) improved last time out, finishing a neck from the winner in second at the end of 1400m at this track. Well placed to play a part again.
