GOING:

Race 9 1400m

Track:      

A few on-pacers lining up so it should be keenly contested. JUSTIN MALIBU (4) was heavily backed and justified the support when resuming last start over 1400m at this track, scoring by 5 lengths. Another win looks on the cards. SATONO HARMONIA (3) did a great job to score by half a length over this course and distance last start in a much-improved run. Steps up a level but she is good enough to cope. APEULO (8) opened this prep with a win two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when third over 1400m at this track. Yet to miss the placings in three starts over this course and distance. In the mix. GRAND PRIX SHIP (7) did a great job to score by 2 lengths over this course and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Likely to be there at the finish again.
