Race 8 1400m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|

Plenty of pressure from Covenant, Second Flush and Specialight battling for the lead over Ken Wenzel. SECOND FLUSH (3) raced on the speed last start and battled on well but found one better over 1400m at this track. Form here at this distance is sound with four wins and three minor placings from eight starts. Sure to run well. COVENANT (5) was sent out favourite last time and scored by one length at this track. Yet to miss the frame in four starts over this course and distance. Best figures should see her run well. GINNO ARANAMI (1) did a good job last start to finish second at this track over 1400m, beaten half a length. Ready to win. KEN WENZEL (9) is racing well but struggling to break through, the latest effort another minor placing when third over 1580m at this track. Genuine performer so a forward showing is expected.
