5:45am - WINTER RACING HANDICAP | 1600m | | i

A very interesting mile race, VONTAINE to take up the running after creating a big boom last prep with other favourites VEGA and PRIMOTIVO midfield and at the back. The tempo could only be STEADY and there have been some excuses in VONTAINE's two runs this prep, if she's near her best this is an ideal race for her. PRIMOTIVO with James Mac on is a threat from the back and LATIN LIGHT is a big watch in the yard, no trials, but only a lightly-framed type that can go forward. IMPAVIDO, VEGA and KAAPFEVER the other chances. KEEP UP just fair in two trials. Primitivo: Blinkers AGAIN, Winkers OFF FIRST TIME. [FORM GUIDE only]
