GOING: S

Race 2 1200m

Track: SOFT     True  

Good early pressure with Educe or Lion Selas likely to take up the running. LION SELAS (9) is a two-start maiden who was unplaced on debut then improved to finish third last time over 1200m at this track, beaten a long neck. Has the pace to be prominent from the outset. Looks well placed to open her account. FACE TULA (2) has been in the betting at both starts but hasn't managed to live up to market expectations. Most recently finished fourth over 1000m at this track. Must respect recent market confidence so give her another chance. EDUCE (11) is going well with two minor placings from three starts this campaign. Was handy all the way and finished third last time out over 1200m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can find winning form. KURO GO (1) never came on when 14th last start at this track but will appreciate the weight drop. Place chance.
