GOING:

Race 10 1400m

Track:      

Profiterole should have enough pace to lead a low-pressure contest. PROFITEROLE (5) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing fifth starting at $3.50. Can turn things around here. KITEYA IYOJI (3) ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1600m at this track. Has her share of talent and finds another suitable race. AMBER SUGAR (1) scored her maiden win here last time out over today's trip, getting the decision by half a length. Looks well placed and she cannot be underestimated. RIERA (2) finished 14th at her most recent appearance over 1800m at Kokura. No surprise if she figured in the finish in this easier assignment.
