GOING:

Race 2 1400m

Track:      

Strong tempo assured with Bloom Song and Princess Roro leading the way over Gruss Gott. YEHOSHUA (4) finished out of the money when fifth over 1300m at this track two weeks ago. Likely improver with strong prospects. BLOOM SONG (8) showed good early dash and led for most of the way before fading to finish one length away in fourth over 1300m at this track. Should be tough to rein in. PRINCESS RORO (3) was prominent until they straightened last time but weakened to finish fourth over 1300m at this track. Worth including in this suitable contest. BLAU NILE (1) was comfortably accounted for when eighth last time out over 1300m here after a win at this track at the previous outing. In the mix.
