GOING:

Race 2 1300m

Track:      

Expecting Sphene Tesoro to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint trip. SPHENE TESORO (4) was in the money two starts back at this track then missed the frame but was not too far away last time over 1300m at this track. Drawn for a good run on the speed. Best form stacks up nicely and deserves another chance. BONS SOUVENIRS (8) turned in a sound effort last time but found one better at this track over 1400m, beaten half a length. Sure to go well. RYUNO PETIT (3) finished fourth two runs back then did well last start but found a couple better over 1400m at this track, beaten only 1.75 lengths. This looks a sterner test than last time but on her best form she is capable of testing her rivals. ADELAIDE (1) is yet to break through after 11 starts. Placed two back then last time out was fifth, beaten 4 lengths, over 1300m at this track. Has ability and rates among the chances.
