GOING:

Race 2 1300m

Track:      

Plenty of pace evident with Saganishiki and Move The Crowd leading the way from Fancy Doll and Mitono Diva. MOVE THE CROWD (2) went forward last time but couldn't quicken in the run home and finished fourth over 1400m at this track. Likely to be in the finish in this suitable assignment. FANCY DOLL (4) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing tenth starting at $4. Well placed and can atone. HORN BUFFALO (3) is yet to break through after seven starts but is not far off a win. Placed two back then missed the frame but was thereabouts last time over 1300m at this track. Has ability and expected to feature. SAGANISHIKI (6) returns after three-and-a-half months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a fourth over 1300m at this track. Has ability and must be included in calculations.
