GOING:

Race 9 1400m

Track:      

Strong tempo to be established by Mark Of Zorro, Ifritia and Noble Genesis. IFRITIA (6) showed good early speed from the inside draw last time and stalked the lead before fading to finish fourth over 1500m at this track. Will go forward and is expected to be in the finish. NOBLE GENESIS (9) found one better last start at this track over this distance after he was in contention on the turn. Form over this journey is strong, boasting three wins from six starts. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Will give a great sight. MARK OF ZORRO (4) finished second at this track two runs back but didn't measure up last time over 1500m at this track, finishing 3 lengths back in sixth. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. LAND SUR (3) got the prize two runs ago but was not as effective last time out when fifth over 1400m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Expect a better run this time.
