GOING:

Race 10 1700m

Track:      

Lack of early speed means Queen Mitsuko could find the lead. LAMINGTON (6) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 1700m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. BRILLO DORADO (5) finished 5.5 lengths away in sixth last time out over 1500m at this track five-and-a-half weeks ago. Steps up in journey today. Sure to run well. ASHOKA (1) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing sixth at this track over 1700m. Hard to beat in this suitable race. K'S HERMY (8) made late ground and finished third last time over 1400m at Kasamatsu. Going up a level this time but she is up to the challenge.
