GOING:

Race 2 1500m

Track:      

Northumbria to take up the running at a moderate tempo. NORTHUMBRIA (2) ran below expectations last time out, finishing sixth starting at $5.20. Well placed this time and expected to be in the finish. A SHIN DENEBOLA (1) finished fifth last start over 1500m at this track, an improvement on her tenth at this track the run before. Finds a nice race and can play a significant role. KAGAYAKI GOLD (11) ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1400m at this track. Drawn wide but has ability and can run a forward race. FACE SYSTEM (7) was comfortably accounted for when tenth last time out over 1500m here following a win at this track at the previous outing. One of the main hopes on her best form.
