GOING:

Race 2 1580m

Track:      

Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by Rock My Soul. YUINO SASHIGANE (4) was in the money two starts back then missed the frame but was not too far away last time over 1400m at this track. Capable of sharp improvement and can get off the mark. ROCK MY SOUL (10) bounced straight into a handy position from the inside draw before finishing eighth last time out over 1580m at this track. In the mix. SEMPREVERDE (5) finished out of the money when fourth in a 1400m contest at this track four weeks ago. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. MACHU (2) finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 1400m at this track when she worked home well. Will benefit from that outing and is nicely placed to play a role in the finish.
