Race 8 1400m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Strong tempo with Derma Purusa, Sarasa Emperor and Know The Truth leading the charge. KNOW THE TRUTH (13) went forward and proved too strong when resuming last time out, scoring by 6 lengths over 1400m at this track. Should go forward from the awkward gate. Meeting a deeper field this time but she cannot be underestimated. DERMA PURUSA (10) went forward when resuming last start over 1400m at this track and held on well for third, beaten 3 lengths. Goes up a rung or two but he is up to the task. SARASA EMPEROR (14) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 1.1 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1400m at Kawasaki after being prominent at the turn. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is one of the chief contenders. PETERS (1) gave away a considerable start over 1400m at Kawasaki last time before hitting the line well to finish sixth. Should prove tough to hold out.
