GOING:

Race 9 1300m

Track:      

Off the low draw Lord Immortal has enough speed to lead the way in the absence of a recognised leader. APOLLO BIBI (2) was well in commission last time but ran below expectations when fourth over 1600m at this track. Deserves another chance. MEISHO ELEGY (1) scored by 3 lengths last start over this journey at this track. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including three wins and three placings. Leading player. MAIDO OKINI (11) hit the frame two starts ago but ran below par last time when eighth over 1600m at this track. Tackling a more suitable race this time and could prove hard to beat. A SHIN GEAR UP (9) produced a better run last start when fourth over 1400m at this track. Top three prospect.
