GOING:

Race 2 1400m

Track:      

Ange Bonheur is the probable leader in the small field. ANGE BONHEUR (1) produced a fair effort on debut last time out when finishing fifth at this track over 1400m. Plenty of scope for improvement and worth following up. T O MONT BLANC (5) was always well back over this course and distance last time and never threatened in the straight. Finds a nice race and can feature in the finish. DAZZLING ICE (7) hasn't been threatening the winner but did an okay job last time when beating half the field home in fourth. Better last time and can play a role in this line-up. VIP PURE ACE (2) ran a better race last start, finishing fourth over 1400m at this track. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
