GOING:

Race 1 1200m

Track: AW      

Plenty of pressure primarily from Lion Selas, Educe and Schon Nova. RYUNO MAGICIAN (10) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 1600m at this track. Worth noting Yuki Miyauchi goes aboard and can progress to take this out. LION SELAS (2) is still a maiden after three runs. Was well in commission last time out but didn't live up to market expectations, finishing fifth over 1200m at this track. Finds a suitable assignment this time and is a great chance to break through. EDUCE (4) fought on well for third last start over 1200m at this track, beaten 1.1 lengths to add to some fine recent form. Can figure in the finish again. NEKTAR (5) ran below her best two starts back but hit form again last time when second, beaten a neck, over 1200m at this track. Well placed and looks tough to stop again.
