GOING:

Class 4 Handicap 1600m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 24)    

Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by Picture. SHINING ROAD (10) recorded a gutsy maiden victory last time out over 1700m at this track, scoring by half a length. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Has a wide gate to overcome but he is likely to feature in the finish again. CHANG CHANG SOCKS (5) finished sixth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1600m at this track, beaten 9 lengths. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. PICTURE (4) is a last-start winner over 1300m at this track, showing good early speed on the occasion and leading throughout to score by half a length. Sure to be thereabouts. MIGHTY FREE (8) raced on the speed and lifted to score by half a length at this track and trip last start in a much improved run. Looks well placed so expect another big run.
