GOING:

Race 10 1400m

Track:      

A strong tempo is assured with Dona Dubois and Grosser Bar leading the charge. GRAFFIAS LADY (10) jumped from wide out last time out when safely held in sixth over this track and trip. Has a wide gate again. May be worth another chance. ETERNAL RUBY (5) won when fresh from a spell two runs back then was well in the market last time but could only manage fourth over 1400m at this track. Rei Iwamoto who has four wins when partnering stays on. Well placed and should be in the finish. GROSSER BAR (8) sat just off the speed and fought on well to finish second when resuming last start at this course and distance. Should park just off the speed despite the draw. One to consider. BLAIRII (1) ran a better race when second up last time out, finishing fifth over 1400m at this track. Ready to hit top form.
