GOING:

Race 9 1400m

Track:      

Plenty of pace with Gold Rikka and Svarog leading from Ho O Pursuit. SVAROG (11) scored by 3 lengths last start at this track over this distance in a big run. Has never been out of the money in three starts at this trip, including two wins. Should be prominent from the outset. Major player. GOLD RIKKA (1) four-year-old filly with multiple wins at this journey. Easily accounted for last time out when fifth over 1400m at this track. Best form stacks up nicely. Big chance. HO O PURSUIT (2) produced a good run two starts back to finish second but disappointed last time when out of the placings at this track over the same trip. Finds a tougher race but this looks well within his grasp. WILSON WAY (6) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at this track over 1400m. Racing well and can go on with it.
