GOING:

Race 8 1400m

Track:      

A solid tempo anticipated with Blue Merry and Crape Myrtle ahead of Yuna Pearl and Heart Lock. YUNA PEARL (3) recorded a strong on-pace win here last time by one length over 1500m. Has a solid record at this circuit. Sure to go well. CRAPE MYRTLE (7) performed above expectations last time over 1400m at this track, getting the prize by a nose. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Among the leading chances. SOUL YUNIBANSU (9) drifted back over 1400m here last time before winding up late to finish fifth, beaten 6 lengths. One to watch for in the concluding stages. HEART LOCK (8) ran below his best last start when beaten 7 lengths into seventh from a wide draw over today's course and distance. Should camp just off the leaders. In the mix.
