GOING:

Race 2 1500m

Track:      

A race that lacks early pressure on paper. BOULDER OPAL (5) did a great job to score by 2 lengths over this course and distance last start to maintain her good form of late. Well placed and can repeat the dose. ECORO DINA (9) finished third last time out over 1500m here following a win at this track at the previous outing. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Nicely placed to take this out. SUNRISE ARZU (3) was well in commission last start over 1500m at this track when second. Top chance. PACHIRA SWEET (8) turned in a better run last start at the second run of the campaign when fifth over 1500m at this track. Can figure in the finish this time.
