GOING:

Race 9 1300m

Track:      

Expecting a strong gallop with Rose Princedom and Ailes Brave taking up the running over Simply The Best. ROSE PRINCEDOM (8) is a last start winner over 1400m at this track, making it five victories from seven appearances this time in. Is unbeaten here at this trip from four starts. Likely to feature. I SAW THE STAR (4) has put together a couple of wins at this circuit, the latest on July 28 over 1300m when she got home by a length. Finds the right race this time and can get the job done again. SPEED SOLDIER (3) couldn't have been more impressive first up last start when he scored dominantly here. Fitter for that last hit-out and this looks well within his grasp. AILES BRAVE (5) was on the speed from the rails draw last start and battled on well to finish second over 1400m at this track. Tackling a more suitable race this time so he is a key runner.
