GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Tactical given the lack of speed. WIN GRAFTON (6) was safely held on the JRA circuit two back then dropped in grade last time and raced on the speed before finishing second at this track. Great chance to open his account on this surface. LUSOFONIA (1) is finding the breakthrough elusive, finishing sixth at her latest appearance over 1400m at this track. Finds the right race and can get off the mark this time. KRICHASHCHII (7) raced on the speed last start over this course and distance and stuck on well to finish third. Likely improver with bright prospects. QUEEN'S GREEN (3) was out of the money two runs back when fresh from a spell then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, finishing fifth. Well placed and fitter can feature.
