GUANGZHOU HANDICAP 1200m Track: GOOD |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Packing Bole and Telecom Fighters possess good early speed and will set a genuine tempo. COLOURFUL KING (3) bumped into a speedy customer on resumption when going off as the race favourite, beaten 1.3L but getting up to 1200m looks to suit him much better now. He's likely to be back from the draw again, but the fresh run should set him up nicely for this. Can go one better this time. AURORA LADY (8) comes through the same race where he was a $19 chance and finished off nicely from last position in the run. He will relish the rise in trip now and the strong tempo there should have him ready to fire now second-up. Loves this track and trip and from a good draw he can make his presence felt. MASTEROFMYUNIVERSE (5) missed last start behind Tomodachi Kokoroe but was only 2L away the finish. That horse has gone on with the job since and this gelding drops in weight slightly off that effort. Purton sticks and he can land the knockout blow. SUPERB CAPITALIST (7) may be looking for the 1200m journey now and can put his best foot forward again.
