ATHENS MOON (1) showed good early dash before weakening to be beaten 7 lengths into fifth over 1509m at this track (Turf) last time out. Manuel Americano who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Leading contender. HALO MUSIC (4) has yet to taste defeat in two runs this campaign. Won fresh at CANTERBURY PARK then scored again most recently over 1408m on dirt at CANTERBURY PARK. Switching to turf for the first time today. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Expected to be in the finish. GO WEST GO (6) drifted well back last start before storming home to score by 0.8 lengths over 1006m at this track (Turf). Among the main hopes. BANG A RANG (3) turned in a fine effort to win by 2.5 lengths at today's course and distance last start in a far better effort. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot repeat the dose.
