GOING:

Race 1 1300m

Track:      

Solid tempo anticipated with Luminous Bouquet and Rimonta Seira matching motors. LADY HARUHARU (4) is yet to break through after three career starts. Could only manage to finish tenth last time out over 1300m at this track following a minor placing at this track over 1300m the run prior. This looks her chance to break through. LUMINOUS BOUQUET (5) faced the starter for the first time and was well supported but could only manage fourth last start at this track over 900m, beaten 11 lengths. Likely improver and can get off the mark this time. CHOCO (2) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when she got a long way back over 1300m at this track, beaten 22 lengths into eighth. Likely improver with strong prospects. SMILE NODE (6) did little and finished 15 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1300m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than her fourth on debut at this track the run before. Nicely placed to feature in the finish.
