GOING:

Race 1 1400m

Track:      

Mana Moana and Al Shiraa are both expected to press forward and take it up. MANA MOANA (4) has now had two runs back from a spell, the latest effort a second over 800m at this track. Nice effort last time and fitter is worth following up. SANONO DANCER (6) is building towards her maiden success, the latest effort a solid third over 1400m at this track. Nicely placed and rates highly off that run. Expected to feature in the finish. OIRIBUKURO (7) settled well back before making steady ground in the straight last start to finish fourth over this journey at this track. Solid top-three prospects. BORDEAUX MADELEINE (2) improved last start but found a couple better over 800m at this track. This looks a good race for her so another forward showing looks likely.
