GOING:

Race 8 1700m

Track:      

Plenty of pace likely from Winter Song, Love Monte and Queen Orchid battling for the lead from Roseo. WINTER SONG (9) lines up on the back of a fourth over 1700m at this track. Race sets up well for her and she is a hope. STARING NOW (6) was disappointing over 1500m at this track last time out when in the market. That followed a good third the run prior. Well placed and can find the frame. QUEEN ORCHID (7) made progress last start to finish third over 1500m here. Stepping up a level this time but on her best form she is capable of a big performance. LOVE MONTE (2) turned in another moderate effort last start when eighth over 1700m at this track. Capable of featuring.
