GOING: S(6)

BEHLAU MURAKAMI GRANT ILP - SUPER MAIDEN SHOWCASE PLATE 1000m

Track: SOFT 6   Clear (Max: 17)   Rail: True.  

Expecting Izablonde to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint trip. DEKADANCE (7) has to be the horse to beat barring one of the first starters being pretty handy. Placed in all three starts and fitter for a recent trial. Drawn ideally and should be right in the finish. SPICE OF DUBAI (10) is on debut for a shrewd stable and is a trial winner leading into this on soft ground. Any support would be significant and should be noted. TRIPTOLEMUS (12) is also on debut with just the one public trial and it was a sound one in the same heat as Dekadance. Another market watch but no surprise if he runs well. CHASING QUIVERS (6) and MEGAFLASH (2) are worth including in the chances. SUGGESTED PLAY: Dekadance to win.
