GOING:

Race 10 1400m

Track:      

A keen pace battle assured Aco prominent, joined by Chuwa Spring and A Shin Kosonte. SABUNO CHANCE (9) made progress last time out, finishing 3 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1600m at this track. Meets some better types this time but another big run will not surprise. ACO (10) scored at this track last time out with a head in reserve at the end of 1400m. Has a decent record at this track with six wins and 12 minor placings from 32 starts. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Sure to be in the finish. A SHIN JOLT (2) did a great job to score by 4 lengths over today's course and distance last start to maintain her good form of late. Finds a tougher race but this looks well within her grasp. A SHIN KOSONTE (5) finished sixth last time out over 1600m at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths. Has solid form at this track, scoring on two occasions from five starts. Best figures have her right in the mix.
