GOING:

Race 9 1400m

Track:      

Not a great deal of pressure likely in the small field, with Fabulous Lord a potential leader. FABULOUS LORD (7) showed good early speed then led into the straight last start before fighting on to finish second, beaten 1.5 lengths, over 1400m at this track. Sure to go well. NEVER LET YOU GO (3) has enjoyed a let-up of five-and-a-half weeks since he won when resuming over 1500m at this track, scoring by one length. Will be better for that latest run and is expected to feature in the finish. RISE TAIGA (4) hit the frame two starts ago at this track but ran below par last time when sixth and beaten 7 lengths over 1500m at this track. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. BEAUTY HONEY (1) proved too strong two runs ago but was not as effective last time out when seventh over 1500m at this track, beaten 13 lengths. Worth another chance.
