Race 1 1300m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|

Plenty of first starters engaged which makes it tricky to map, but we can assume a genuine tempo. EGAL (7) is a three-start maiden who returned last time and finished fifth at this track over 1400m, beaten 11 lengths. Fitter and capable of taking this out. VINA NAM DINH (9) is a three-year-old filly on debut. From a very strong family, being by Moanin from Vina Seven. Ready to run well despite an awkward draw. LOVE SILICA (10) is facing the starter for the first time. By Danon Smash and comes from the Hirotsugu Ozawa stable. Respect any positive move in betting. CENTURY LOVE (3) is having her second run after she failed to threaten on debut last time, finishing 12 lengths from the winner in sixth over 1400m at this track. Top-three contender with that run under the belt.
