GOING:

Race 1 1400m

Track:      

Love Slender has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. KURINO DAHAI (5) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 7 lengths. Fitter so anticipating a better run this time. SAKURA GRACIEUX (3) is a 18-start maiden who finished sixth at her most recent appearance over 1400m at this track. Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. COSMO UNIQUE (7) settled well back but hit the line well to finish fifth, beaten 6 lengths, over 1400m here last time. Solid top-three hope. LOVE SLENDER (6) produced another moderate effort last start when 21 lengths from the winner in 11th over 1400m at this track. Better than recent efforts suggest.
