GOING:

Race 9 1200m

Track:      

Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by Good Vibes. GOOD VIBES (7) did well to score at this track two runs ago before finishing second over 1200m here last time out. Yet to miss the frame in two starts over this course and distance. Finds a suitable race and can measure up again. RUN OF THE WORLD (5) broke through for his maiden win over 1000m at this track last time. Looks well-placed and he cannot be underestimated. NISHINO SAIEN (2) was safely held in tougher company two runs back then appreciated the drop in grade last time and scored over 1200m at this track. Leading player again. OUVERTURE (1) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when seventh over 1200m at this track. Well placed and can make amends.

Useful filly. Last start 7th of 9 at this track on September 3 over 1200m, 9 len behind Taisei Triomphe with 54kg at $106. The race before that raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by a neck at this track August 14 over 1200m defeating Steife Brise with 54kg at $3.80. Better than that recent lacklustre performance suggests.
