GOING:

Race 1 1700m

Track:      

Expecting T O Emerald to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. T O EMERALD (12) made it three seconds in as many starts since a spell when she went forward over 1700m at this track last time and held on well. Will be looking to cross and steady the tempo. Will be hard to stop. MIRAIE HOSHO (10) wound up strongly last time out to finish one length adrift in second over 1200m at this track. Building towards a win and will be nearing peak fitness. Can measure up. LOVE LEGAL (11) has recorded two minor placings from three runs this campaign. Was prominent throughout and finished 3 lengths from the winner in third last start. In a suitable race and can figure in the finish. MAYANO SHAMROCK (4) improved last start but found a couple better over 1600m at this track. Go well.
