GOING: S

Race 8 1000m

Track: SOFT     True  

Purple Beauty has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. ETERNAL WIND (3) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1000m at this track after being prominent from the outset. Should enjoy a good run just off the speed. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. PURPLE BEAUTY (5) was comfortably accounted for when ninth last time out over 1000m at this track, beaten 7 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Finds a suitable race and can return to the winner's circle. MIDNIGHT GALE (2) progressed nicely last time out to finish just half a length from the winner in second over 1000m at this track after being in the firing line on the turn. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. QUATTRO SAUVAGE (1) was beaten 2.75 lengths into sixth over 1000m at this track two weeks ago. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
