GOING: G

Race 5 1400m

Track: GOOD     True  

Yoshino Mitchi, Harmony Shine and Lingus Sweet will be keen early so the tempo should be genuine. CRETEIL (4) broke through for his maiden win over 1500m at this track last time. Shaping up nicely and he should be in the finish. YOSHINO MITCHI (6) has had two runs since a break, the latest a third over 1500m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths. Has scope for improvement so he is among the winning hopes. HARMONY SHINE (10) turned in a nice effort last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished just a nose from the winner in second over 1400m at this track after being in contention on the bend. Strong chance. LINGUS SWEET (5) was prominent at the corner and finished second last time over 1400m at this track, beaten 3 lengths. Placed to advantage and can take this out.
