GOING:

Race 11 1600m

Track:      

Strong tempo with Go Go Croix and Ken Bridge Los leading the way over Bellagio Spark. KEN BRIDGE LOS (8) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by a neck over 1400m at this track. Must raise the bar but she has the ability to test this field. GO GO CROIX (7) has been thereabouts lately without being able to break through, the latest effort a second at Mizusawa over 1600m. Has a high cruising speed. Among the leading chances. STILL ALONE (1) finished fifth last time out over 1400m at this track a week-and-a-half ago. Steps up in journey today. Right in this. BELLAGIO SPARK (3) was sent out at $36.60 last time but ran above expectations and won over 1600m at this track. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Sure to be thereabouts.
