GOING: G

THE RUNNING CAMEL MS PACE 2130m

Track: GOOD      

DIAMOND BAY (1) broke last start and finished 9 metres from the winner in fourth over 2130m at this track in an unfortunate start to this campaign. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw and rates a big chance if she behaves in this similar assignment. CHRISTOPHANO (8) is back from a break of six-and-a-half months and looks to be right up to the mark following a placing in a recent trial. Has to contend with a very wide draw but is sure to be right there at the finish. DANGER (7) is the next best after finishing runner-up over 2130m here last time out. Top-three commodity. WELLOILED (2) did not make an impact last start but strips fitter third-up from the break and can improve from this favourable draw.

Two back was fifth after being driven well back, behind Altar at this track over 1730m in a 4yo+ MAIDEN on April 29 at $14. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5.5 m finishing second after a quick start, behind World Of Rock at this track over 2130m in a 4yo+ MAIDEN on May 6 at $3.20. Finds a nice race and should feature.

Solid run when a close second after a quick start, behind Double The Ante at Narrogin over 2242m in a 4yo+ 0-1 WIN on May 3 at $21. Then a handy effort when beaten by 7 m finishing third after showing early speed, behind World Of Rock at this track over 2130m in a 4yo+ MAIDEN on May 6 at $34. Rates highly. Among the top chances on recent form.

Last start was well back in the run when 5th (Fr4) over 2130m at this track, beaten 10 m by World Of Rock (2:46.30) in 4yo+ MAIDEN on May 6 at $8.50. At his previous start was well back in the run when 4th (Fr8) over 1730m at this track, beaten 7 m by Altar (2:08.50) in 4yo+ MAIDEN on April 29 at $151. Capable of a better showing.
