GOING: G

Race 8 1600m

Track: GOOD     True  

High Power Zenkai should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. HIGH POWER ZENKAI (11) returned from a spell two-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 6 lengths into eighth over 1600m at this track. Has been in the money at each second up start. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. HUTAN BEAT (6) has been thereabouts without winning, the most recent offering a second at this track over 1600m when she was beaten 4 lengths. Should camp just off the leaders. Sure to be in the finish. RHEIN GALA (2) ran fourth at his latest appearance over 1200m at this track, clocking in 2.75 lengths from the winner. Expected to feature. BINNADA (5) resumes in a similar race to his last run four months ago when sixth, beaten 8 lengths. Definite top-three chance.
