GOING:

Race 11 1500m

Track:      

Hot tempo expected from Lil Frost and Diamo Minoru. DIAMO MINORU (9) was in the money two starts back but couldn't back it up last time when sixth at this track over 1500m. Likely improver with strong prospects. MEINER NARRATIVE (10) did a good job last start to finish second at this track over 1700m, beaten 1.5 lengths. Hiroki Murakami stays aboard. Among the leading chances. PRIMERA (5) impressed last time with a 2-length win at this track over this journey. Should camp just off the leaders and is one of the main contenders. LEGAMI (6) has been freshened up since she finished seventh over 1500m at this track eight weeks ago. Has good early toe so she should be handy in the run and can feature in the finish.
