GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Pace looks genuine from Ray De Fleur, Yuigahama Beach and Marions Nous, closely attended by M O Komachi. YUIGAHAMA BEACH (9) improved last time out, finishing 1.3 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1400m at this track after being in the firing line on the turn. Looks well placed so expect another big run. G G FUN (8) hasn't been far away lately, last time finishing fifth over 1400m at this track, and gets some weight relief today. Form sound for this and expected to run well. BIG WAVE (1) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort an eighth over 1400m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. M O KOMACHI (6) returned from a spell three weeks ago when she finished seventh over 1400m at this track. She strips fitter and is capable of running into the money this time. Each way value.
