Race 3 1400m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|

Not much early speed of note and Animal Queen and Wind Avenue may find themselves setting a steady tempo. ANIMAL QUEEN (3) resumes in a similar race to her last run ten weeks ago when she scored by a neck. She capitalised on her good run of form there and there's no reason why that can't continue. The one to beat.. WIND AVENUE (5) lines up for the first time since September 1. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1200m at Morioka Dirt. Should be hard to stop. KITTEN'S RUMBA (7) finished second over 1600m at this track at his most recent appearance on November 25. Looks a strong top-three prospect. SOUTHERN NIGHTS (9) has not appeared since he finished tenth over 2500m at this track on November 24. Has to be respected.
