GOING:

Race 2 1500m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with Aya Chance to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. AYA CHANCE (10) was quickly into stride over 1500m at this track last time and defied all challengers to score by 1.5 lengths. Likely to push forward from the wide draw. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot salute. ICE VILLAGE (6) went to the lead from the low draw when fresh from a spell last time out and was still there on straightening, eventually finishing second over 1500m at this track. Well-placed and will take running down. ECUMENOPOLIS (9) failed to live up to market expectations last start when out of the placings over 1400m at this track, beaten 15 lengths. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. SUNRISE LONDON (2) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1500m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish.
