GOING: G

Race 11 1400m

Track: GOOD      

A solid tempo on the cards with Curren Chunky taking charge. MARBLE MACARON (11) has enjoyed a let-up of five weeks since she won when resuming over 1400m at this track, scoring by 2.5 lengths. Fitter for that last hitout and is all set to make it two-for-two this prep. PAUOLE (9) is back from a spell of nine weeks. Closed last prep with a sixth, beaten 3 lengths, over 1400m at Ohi. Profiles nicely. SURF'S UP (2) finished third last time over 1400m at this track, beaten 3 lengths. Meeting a tougher field but on her best form she is good enough to take this out. FEE BLANCHE (6) returns after a spell of ten weeks. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1800m at Niigata Dirt. Comes here with definite top-three claims.
