GOING:

Race 2 1500m

Track:      

Plenty of runners but a dawdling affair is on the cards. USHIWAKAMARU (8) returned from a spell two weeks ago when he was beaten 8 lengths into seventh over 1500m at this track. Strips fitter and can feature. MEINER KAISER (10) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1500m at this track, beaten 10 lengths into sixth after being prominent at the turn. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. VIGORAS GAIA (11) is a five-start maiden who could only manage to finish eighth at her latest appearance over 1500m at this track. Among the chances in what looks a nice race for her. DARE TO BATTLE (5) has switched yards since finishing sixth two weeks ago over 1500m at this track. Well-placed and is among the chances.
