GOING: G

Race 8 1600m

Track: GOOD      

Strong pace from Special Sunday and Kibaru Star matching motors with El Mas Fuerte close at hand. SPECIAL SUNDAY (10) led throughout last time over 1600m at this track and scored a comfortable win. Winning rider aboard again and should prove tough to beat. BEAUTIFUL BELL (11) turned things around last start and scored by 2.5 lengths over 1400m at this track. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she is good enough to play a major role. FAIR CLOUD (3) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing second last time over 1600m at this track. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. GORDIAN KNOT (2) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1600m at this track, beaten 9 lengths into eighth. Finds a nice race and can atone.
