GOING:

Race 9 1000m

Track:      

Solid tempo anticipated with Bel Mondo heading them off. BEL MONDO (4) was sent out favourite last time and scored by 0.8 lengths over today's trip at this track. Has started three times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Rates highly and should go well again. PURPLE BEAUTY (5) bounced back last start and landed the prize by 0.8 lengths as favourite over 1000m at this track. Must raise the bar but she has the talent to test this line-up. ETERNAL WIND (8) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second last start over 1000m at this track. Sure to run well. REIWA HOKUTO (7) hit the frame two starts ago here but ran below par last time when eighth over 1000m at this track. Finds a nice race and can make amends.
