GOING: G

Maiden Race 2400m

Track:      

From a wide gate Retro Type has the speed to cross and lead a low-pressure affair. TRUST BOSS (10) had plenty of admirers last time and finishing a close second over 2400m at this track. Goes well at this trip, recording three minor placings and shapes as a key contender. HEARTLIGHT (14) ran above expectations and got up for third at her latest appearance here over 2000m. Good signs last time and is worth including. SHAH ZAMAN (6) has been in the betting at both starts but hasn't managed to live up to market expectations. Most recently finished tenth over 2200m at Kyoto, beaten 9 lengths. Where there's smoke there's fire and worth considering. LA LUNE EST BELLE (13) was beaten 2.25 lengths into sixth over 1800m at this circuit last time out. In the mix.
