GOING:

Race 8 1700m

Track:      

Silver Mirage and Kingly Air to take up the running at a strong tempo. BREAKIN' AWAY (7) continues to race well with a win two back before finishing 1.5 lengths away in second last time over 1700m at this track. Record at this track is strong. Should be in the finish. KEIAI V THREE (9) improved sharply on his eighth two starts back with success over 1600m at this track four weeks ago, getting home by 2 lengths. Likely to be there at the finish again. SILVER MIRAGE (10) will find this easier than last start when she finished seventh over 1800m here, that effort following on from a minor placing two starts ago at this track. Anticipating sharp improvement. HOYO MOON (4) improved sharply last time out to score by one length over 1500m at Kawasaki four weeks ago. Solid top-three prospects.

Recent form sound. Returns from a 29-day let-up. Most recently won by 1.0 len at Kawasaki July 7 over 1500m defeating Derma Nymph with 54kg at $9.50. The start before that crossed from a wide gate to settle just off the pace but gave ground when 4th of 14 at Kawasaki on June 15 over 1600m, 4.5 len behind Excel Black with 55kg at $8.30. Big chance again.
