GOING:

Race 9 1500m

Track:      

Professional to take charge ahead of Triple Ai at a good tempo. PRECURSOR (9) met with solid support last start over 1700m at this track when fourth. This trip suits so worth another chance. ABSTRUSE (5) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing eighth starting at $3.90. Faces an easier assignment and could be hard to beat. PROFESSIONAL (2) could only manage third as favourite last start over 1500m at this track, making it four minor placings from eight starts this campaign. Handy draw will assist and shapes as one to consider. MEISHO AYUKAZE (4) was responsible for a better run last start, finishing fourth over 1500m at this track. Nicely placed to find some form.
