GOING:

Race 9 1600m

Track:      

Not a great deal of early pace evident. DEAD AHEAD (9) started favourite when resuming but found a couple better over 1400m at this track. Will appreciate the extra ground. Sure to run well. PRENDRE YOU (7) recorded a strong maiden win over 1400m at this track last time, getting there by 1.5 lengths. Looks well placed and she cannot be discounted. ROCK GLASS (5) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1600m at this track, beaten 15 lengths. Strips fitter and can play a major role. KISEKINO KAGAYAKI (4) returned from a spell two weeks ago when she was beaten 8 lengths into fourth over 1600m at this track. Fitter so watch for a better performance.
