GOING:

Race 9 1700m

Track:      

Strong tempo with Innocence and Based Tratra leading from God Tesoro and Sammaime. BASED TRATRA (2) finished second when resuming two runs back then progressed nicely last time out to score by 0.8 lengths over 1500m at this track. Stepping up a level this time but on current form he is capable of another big performance. GOD TESORO (6) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing third last time when he was always up in the leading division over 1700m at this track. Finds a tougher race but a win is not out of the question. INNOCENCE (3) has been solid in two runs following a spell. Most recently finished a head away in second a week-and-a-half ago over 1400m at this track. Ready to peak at the third run in. Hard to beat. FINAL FELIZ (8) drifted back over 1400m here last time before winding up late to finish fifth. Will be putting in the big strides late and is one to consider.
