Race 1 1200m
END STAGE (6) returns after a spell of five months. Looking to emulate his win at this track at the beginning of last prep. Has a strong first-up record, scoring on three occasions from five runs. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal. FAIRYLAND (5) pushed forward last time and battled on gamely to finish just a neck from the winner in second over 1500m at Urawa. Looks well placed so expect another bold performance. MAD RIBBON GIRL (3) was unwanted in betting last time but scored by 2 lengths over 1200m at this track. Among the main hopes. MUSICIENNE (4) scored her maiden win five back and is poised to salute again after finishing in the money at the last three outings, most recently when third over 1200m at this track. Sound top-three chance. |
