GOING:

Race 8 1300m

Track:      

Expecting a strong pace from the outset with plenty of speed engaged. IMMORTAL WIND (4) led throughout last start to score an effortless 5 lengths win over 1300m at this track. Has a strong association with Kondo Shogetsu who has been in the saddle for his last three wins. Can produce another winning run here. AVERY (10) scored at this track last time out with half a length in reserve at the end of 1300m. Has a good record at this course and distance, including two wins. Capable of taking this out. BRABEIO (6) could only manage second as favourite last start over 1600m at this track, making it three minor placings from six starts this campaign. Shapes as one to consider. B B BASILIS (7) raced on the speed from the outset and went to score by 1.5 lengths last time over 1600m at this track. Is going okay this campaign, recording two wins and a minor placing from six starts. Deserves respect on her best figures.
