GOING:

Race 2 1500m

Track:      

Good pace headed by Logi Pierrefeu, At The Hop and Meisho Ohako, with Kafuji Assam and Queen Mitsuko close by. LOGI PIERREFEU (2) performed well last time at this track, finishing third and only 0.6 lengths from the winner at the end of 1400m. Expected to give a bold sight again. MEISHO OHAKO (9) was strongly fancied last start and broke through for her maiden win over 1500m at this track. Can go on with it. KAFUJI ASSAM (3) turned in a strong run two starts ago but failed to back it up over 1700m at this track last time when sixth. Appeals back in trip this time and deserves another chance. AT THE HOP (11) has been thereabouts since getting off the mark four runs back, the latest effort a second over 1400m at this track. Should settle just off the speed despite the draw and can feature in the finish.
