Race 2 1400m

Track:      

Smart Rave to take up the running with Elegant Fleur and Ninkari close at hand. SMART RAVE (2) is flying with back-to-back top-three finishes, the latest a strong second here when on speed throughout. Well placed again and should run another big race. LAC PUER (9) has two placings from three runs this prep and stuck on well for third last start. Honest type who gets his chance. NINKARI (8) improved to finish fourth last time after racing handy, building nicely and looks hard to beat in this suitable race. JO NOVELISTA (6) lifted last start when finding one better over this trip and can be in the finish again with a repeat effort.
