GOING:

Race 8 1500m

Track:      

Pace genuine with Skyray and Run Of The World pressing hard closely followed by Skill Hunter and Wee Beastie. SKYRAY (1) has progressed nicely in his last couple of runs. Finished second here two starts back then scored by 4 lengths as favourite last time out over 1400m at this track. Hosokawa Satoshi scored on him last time and retains the mount. One of the chief contenders. MICROPHYLLUM (11) ran a nice race last time out over 1500m at this track, finishing third. Yet to miss the placings in three starts over this course and distance and can feature again. SKILL HUNTER (5) was again denied last start when he found one better over 1500m at this track. Sure to run his usual honest race. IROGONOMI (2) last raced on May 9 when seventh at this track over 1700m. Placed to advantage and can run a better race.
