GOING:

Race 3 1500m

Track:      

Little in the way of tactical speed so a moderate tempo is likely. CARAMEL CHOCOLAT (3) is a six-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start. Backmarker who keeps coming. Will be tough to stop. AUTUMN LUCE (10) is a five-start maiden who finished seventh at her most recent outing here. Rates highly in this field and can turn things around. THE HAVEL (6) finished out of the money when fresh from a spell two starts back then she got a long way back in a 1500m contest at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Well placed this time and can improve sharply. SHIKANSUIYO (2) missed the frame last start in sixth. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time.
