GOING:

Race 8 2400m

Track:      

Keen battle for the lead with Derma Ariel, Kofuseigetsu and Vektor Mach in advance of Escaramuza and Ecoro Lucina. VEKTOR MACH (8) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fourth, beaten 1.4 lengths, over 2000m at this track. Will take some beating. DERMA ARIEL (1) is a 10-start maiden who could only manage to finish fifth at his latest appearance over 1600m at this track. Likely to be in the finish in this suitable assignment. ECORO LUCINA (7) finished 5 lengths away in seventh last time out over 1600m at this track after being prominent at the corner three-and-a-half weeks ago. Steps up in journey today. Right in this. POSITANO (3) was beaten 4.5 lengths into sixth in a 2000m contest at this track last time out. No surprise to see her in the mix.
