GOING:

Race 9 1300m

Track:      

Not much early pressure but A Shin Ottimo, One Leon and Best Decision can take up forward spots. AGRODOLCE (6) has been in the betting when finishing in the first half of the field in his last two outings. Had placed in two of his previous three attempts at this track so has been ticking along well and finds a suitable assignment. Nicely placed to make amends. ONE LEON (8) settled well back but hit the line well to finish fifth over 1400m here last time. May prove tough to stop in this line up. NOBLE RUN (10) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period but was racing well with a string of placings before the latest attempt. BEST DECISION (2) had been racing well with two consecutive placings before last start managing only sixth. Draws well and has to be respected.
