GOING:

Race 2 1200m

Track:      

Expecting Fairyland to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint trip. BROAD PHYLUM (9) fought on for second last start over 1200m at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Nicely placed to find winning ways. FAIRYLAND (5) is building towards a win with placings at her last two runs, the latest effort a third over 1200m at this track when beaten 2 lengths. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Leading contender. MAD RIBBON GIRL (7) was safely held when seventh last time out over 1200m at this track, beaten 12 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Likely improver with strong prospects. MUSICIENNE (6) had been racing well prior to finishing 7 lengths back in fifth over 1200m at this track. Has good early toe so she should be handy in the run. Deserves respect on best figures.
