GOING:

Race 10 1230m

Track:      

Cracking tempo with Sound Tutu and Sexy Cat leading the way. SOUND TUTU (2) scored at her most recent appearance, getting home by 2 lengths over 820m at this track as favourite. That continued the good form this campaign, with two wins from five starts. Sure to go well again. SATONO RENDEZVOUS (4) was never in contention when 13th over 1200m at Kyoto last start in a tougher race. Ideally placed and is sure to play a major role. SEXY CAT (9) has three placings from six appearances this prep and last start finished second over 820m at this track. Winning claims if at her peak. APOSTROPHE (8) was prominent at the turn and finished third last time over 820m here. Will trim down following recent racing and is capable of another bold effort.
