GOING:

Race 9 1400m

Track:      

Victoria Land to take up the running with Kitano Blue Hallez and Meiner Hitze close at hand. VICTORIA LAND (2) is a genuine type with two minor placings from three starts this prep. Turned in another good performance last start when second over 1400m at this track after she was in the firing line all the way. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. TAKARA KURO ROCK (6) did a great job to score by 7 lengths over this course and distance last start in a nice progression on the first-up performance. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. KITANO BLUE HALLEZ (4) finished ninth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 850m at this track, beaten 2 lengths after being in contention on the turn. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. COUNTER ATTACK (1) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fourth over 1400m at this track after he was well back on straightening. Suitably placed so anticipating a bold performance.
