SWEETPEA STAKES(L) 1800m Track: FIRM |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Expecting a strong pace headed by Emaloa, Isola Felice and Neuse Tesoro. SCHNELL LAUFEN (12) wasted no time getting off the mark on debut over 1600m at this track ten weeks ago and has not been produced since. Sure to improve and can make it back-to-back wins. Grade 2 placegetter HAWAIIAN TIARE (2) was ridden quietly then made a little ground and finished 4.5 lengths away in tenth last time out over 1600m at Hanshin three weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Major player in this line up. KOGANENO SORA (5) was heavily backed and justified the support when resuming last start over 1800m at Nakayama, scoring by half a length. Open to plenty of improvement and she looms as a significant threat. ISOLA FELICE (10) is a promising galloper who saluted at her only run last prep nine weeks ago over 1800m at Nakayama. Has an impressive first-up record including two victories. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Should give backers a sight.
