GOING:

Race 12 1400m

Track:      

Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Memory Film. GOKO SASU (8) finished second two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by 2 lengths as public elect over 1580m at this track. Meets a stronger field but he is up to the task. LUX SOLEIL (1) went fast early and went on to score by 2.5 lengths last time out over 1400m at this track. Should settle handy in the run. Must raise the bar but a win is not out of the question. BIJIN HAKUMEI (3) scored last start by 3 lengths at this track over 1580m. Excellent record here having never missed the placings in three starts, including two wins and one placing. Shapes as one to consider. COPANO ELBAZ (7) turned in a fine effort to win by 0.8 lengths at today's course and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run.
