GOING:

Race 2 1400m

Track:      

Just a moderate tempo given the absence of pacy gallopers. WISPY SNOW (8) hit the frame two starts ago but ran below par last time when seventh over 1400m at this track. Has her share of talent and finds a suitable race. TOTONOO (4) lines up for the first time since August 20. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1400m at this track. Comes here with definite claims. SNARK STAGE (1) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fourth over 1400m at this track. Another bold showing is expected. NISHINO DANTE (2) was unplaced last start over 1230m at this track when eighth. Well placed to bounce back.
