GOING:

Race 2 1400m

Track:      

Strong pace from San Mousquetaires and Orchid Lady matching motors with Caramel Song close at hand. SAN MOUSQUETAIRES (6) winning run came to an end last start when sixth as favourite over 1600m at this track. Form has been hard to fault and can make amends. MIKONO YUME (2) won her maiden five starts ago and has been thereabouts since, the latest effort a third over 1400m at this track on May 13. Can take this out. ORCHID LADY (7) finished second last start at the first run back from a spell over 1400m at this track, beaten one length. Can produce a winning run here. G T OKA (4) failed to feature last start, finishing sixth over 1400m at this track. Leading prospect on best form.
