GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Moderate tempo headed by Meisho Poirot. KOKOKEI (8) finished fourth at this track and distance at her last appearance six months ago. Capable of playing a major role. MEISHO POIROT (1) started at $7.80 last time and ran below expectations, finishing eighth and beaten 8 lengths at this track over 1400m after being in the firing line on the corner. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. SATSUKI LEGEND (6) is a 32-start maiden who could only manage to finish seventh at her latest appearance over 1400m at this track. Finds the right race and is worth consideration. LOVELOVE LOVE CHAN (10) is a 20-start maiden finding who is knocking on the door, the last run a commendable third at this track over 1400m. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways.
