|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Strong tempo with Swedish Glitter, Russian Ember and Denman Force leading the way. DENMAN FORCE (5) lightly raced gelding heading in the right direction and gets a much better setup for this. Won well on debut two-back, then hunted out from the sticky draw with a gallant on-pace third over 1000m at this track. Puts himself into the right position and will prove hard to catch. BOLO MISS (2) two runs back have been full of merit and a win looks imminent. Closed strongly from off the speed with a game second over 1000m at this track. Tongue-tie goes on and no shock to see her finish over the top of these. LA POTENZA (6) nice filly heading in the right direction but doesn't get the same map favours. Sent to the front with a dominant on-pace win over 1300m at this track in good style. Sure to be thereabouts is she can get cover early. ZAIBATSU (14) significant weight drop for this after savaging the line late with a narrow second over 1000m at Orange. Ugly map but stays in the calculations. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 5,2,6,14.
