GOING:

SWEETPEA STAKES(L) 1800m

Track: YIELDING      

Strong early tempo with Theresa driving forward from a wide gate with June Eos also handy. GLORY LINK (8) resumes after a break of 12 weeks. Won on debut to launch the last campaign over 1600m at Chukyo. Key runner while fresh. MAGLIA IRIDATA (12) wasted no time getting off the mark on debut over 1800m at this track 11 weeks ago and has not been produced since. Sure to improve and can make it back-to-back wins. ALLMENDHUBEL (6) knuckled down strongly to get within 0.8 lengths of the winner in third last start over 1600m at Nakayama when fresh from a break. Will find this much easier. Should measure up in this field. ROUGE SOLITAIRE (5) lines up on the back of a 2.25 lengths sixth over 1600m at Hanshin. Credentials hard to knock.
