GOING:

Race 8 1700m

Track:      

Genuine tempo from D S Yell leading S'il Te Plait. S'IL TE PLAIT (4) went forward last start and proved too strong, getting home by 0.8 lengths over 1700m at this track. In a suitable race and can play a major role. SOLDIER FIELD (2) finished fourth last start over 2000m at this track. Has a very good record over today's journey with three wins from five starts. Well placed and should be in the finish. D S YELL (3) was a gutsy winner two back then ran third over 1700m at this track on July 1. Yuji Iwahashi has won when aboard in the past and gets the ride again. One of the contenders. BRAVE AMORE (6) is close to breaking through after three consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1700m at this track. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time.
