Beyond The Ballade and Asuka Seon look to take it up. BEYOND THE BALLADE (3) is a 39-start maiden who looks close to that elusive win after finishing in the placings at the last couple of runs, most recently when second over 1400m at this track. Should park just off the speed. Will play a major role. FLASHDANCE (8) was racing well without winning, finishing in the money on two consecutive occasions, before finishing fourth last time out over 1300m at this track. Better than the last run and can atone. A SHIN HEMATITE (5) has been in good form, scoring three back at this track then placing twice in a row, most recently finishing third over 1300m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. NAMURA VERONICA (2) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1300m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Nicely placed to find winning ways.
