GOING:

Race 8 1400m

Track:      

Off the inside draw Greatest Work should bounce straight to the lead and set a solid tempo. GREATEST WORK (1) resumes in a similar race to his last run eight months ago when fourth, beaten 4.5 lengths. Boasts a first-up record of two wins and two placings from six starts. One of the genuine hopes in the race. SOUND COURAGE (7) did his best work late to finish third at his latest appearance at this track over 1200m. Good signs last time and can play a major role. AFTER REVIEW (6) made progress last time out, finishing 5 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1400m at this track after being prominent at the bend. Tackling a more suitable race so he is one of the main contenders. T'S LINK (14) was safely held last time when beaten 10 lengths into 11th at today's course and distance. Has a wide gate to contend with again. Solid top-three hope.
