GOING:

Race 8 1400m

Track:      

Good pace with Gureko, Tana Kibo and On The Radio prominent. TANA KIBO (1) closed last campaign with back-to-back placings, the last of which was at this track 11 weeks ago. Should enjoy a good run just off the speed. Expected to be in the finish. MONTSAINT IL VENTO (6) lines up for the first time since December 30. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1600m at this track. Should be hard to stop. LUSTER CANNON (3) finished second at this track and distance at her last appearance 11 weeks ago. Looks a strong top-three prospect. ON THE RADIO (2) lines up for the first time since December 30. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1300m at this track. Looks a strong top-three prospect.
