GOING:

Race 8 1300m

Track:      

Solid pace with Adler finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. ADLER (7) returns from a layoff of ten weeks. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1600m at this track. Comes here with definite claims. CRI D'AME (11) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 12 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Has been in the money at each second up start. Fitter so expect a better run this time. METUS (4) did little and finished 5 lengths from the winner in sixth over 1400m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than his fourth at this track the run before. Nicely placed to get the prize. HIGH MOBILITY (10) finished seventh two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1400m at this track, beaten just half a length. Finds a nice race and can secure another top-three finish.
