GOING:

Race 9 1500m

Track:      

Papita and Jun Firenze to take up the running at a strong tempo. PAPITA (10) is going well this preparation, including a last start win over 1500m at this track to bring up three wins from five runs in the campaign. Should be prominent from the outset and can give a great sight. COOL CRAVATE (6) led throughout last time over 1500m at this track and scored a comfortable win. Can push forward again here and is likely to play a major role. ANTHEM BAROWS (7) was second last time out over 1500m here following a win at this track at the previous outing. Has a good record at this course and distance, including two wins. Deserves plenty of thought. JUN FIRENZE (11) did a great job to score by 2.5 lengths over this course and distance last start in a far better run. Meets some better types this time but he has the talent to test this line-up.
