GOING:

Race 9 1400m

Track:      

Little early speed means Jhang Maghiana and Good Habits will find themselves in leading roles. JHANG MAGHIANA (1) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1400m at this track after being in the firing line all the way. Nicely placed to find winning ways. GOOD HABITS (5) returns from a break of three-and-a-half months. Genuine performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a third over 1400m at this track. Finds the right race to launch another bright campaign. HONEY LOCO SKIP (6) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing fifth at this track over 1400m. Best figures measure up nicely. Can do a lot better. HANG TIME (7) next best.
