GOING:

Race 10 900m

Track:      

Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Remigino Tesoro. SAMMARU WARRIOR (4) finished out of the money when fourth in a 1400m contest at this track five weeks ago. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. MIJOKA SMILE (1) was safely held when 11th last time out over 1400m here after a win at this track at the previous outing. She can challenge. KEI EMPEREUR (5) finished out of the money when seventh in a 1400m contest at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago. Among the chances on her best form. DATE NINE HOUSE (6) ran a better race last start, finishing fourth over 1400m at this track. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
