GOING:

Race 9 1700m

Track:      

Battle Leggenda has the pace to lead in what is likely to be a moderate tempo. CORAL MOON (8) scored over 1500m here two back then missed the frame last time out over 1500m at this track. Certainly worth another chance. KANARRA CREEK (10) raced below his best last time when seventh over 1700m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. MISO (9) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1500m at this track. Fitter so expect a better run this time. KAMILLE (4) won at a big price by a neck two starts back over 1700m here then finished fourth over 1500m at this track two weeks ago. Big chance on her best form.
