Maiden Race 1200m

Track:      

Pace looks strong with Sunny Nature pushing forward from out wide along with Especially in closer. Even race. PEISHA ARTHUR (1) has been in the money three times including last start when a very close third over 1200m at Niigata. Distance specialist who looks a top chance to break through. SAISON DE FEUILLES (9) is a four-start maiden who is well and truly overdue, finishing off well to get up for a close fourth at Niigata over 1400m last time out. Ideally placed to shed the maiden tag. ASCENDIA (15) was in contention on the corner and finished second last time over 1200m at Niigata when resuming from a spell, beaten 2.5 lengths. Likely improver with bright prospects. AMBITIOUS YOSHINO (12) is close to a win following two recent minor placings, the latest when second over 1200m at Niigata. Will drift back but wind up late. Solid claims.
