GOING:

Race 2 820m

Track:      

In a race devoid of early speed Attack Chance is the most likely to find the front. ATTACK CHANCE (1) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish sixth over 820m at this track. Expected to be in this for a long way. FESTIVE LUCINA (9) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 820m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. FILLE CHAN (4) finished out of the money when seventh in an 820m contest at this track seven-and-a-half weeks ago. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. NISHINO MIGNONNE (10) finished fifth last time out over 820m at this track. Has ability and rates among the chances.
