GOING:

Race 8 1300m

Track:      

American Cool and Million Times can be prominent. AMERICAN COOL (3) registered a strong win at this track two runs ago. Good last time out when in contention on the turn before finishing second over 1400m at this track, beaten 0.8 lengths. Looks well placed so can go close. MILLION TIMES (9) raced on the pace when resuming last start and lifted strongly to hold second, beaten half a length, over today's journey at this track. Suitably placed and should be fitter so anticipating a big run again. UNDER THE BRIDGE (4) was a winner two back then pushed forward last time and boxed on for second over 1600m at this track. Contender. KAMPU (6) was safely held when fifth last time out after a win at this track at the previous outing. Can be thereabouts.
