GOING:

Race 3 1500m

Track:      

Doubt they will go too hard without a noted leader engaged. SIGN OF HAPPINESS (7) was in the firing line all the way and fought on for second last start over 1400m at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Looks well placed this line-up so expect another big run. LIED (5) is a 13-start maiden who could only manage to finish fourth at her latest appearance over 1500m at this track. This offers her a great chance of breaking through. COSMIC CALL (3) is a 48-start maiden who finished sixth at her most recent appearance over 1500m at this track. Among the chances in what looks a nice race for her. RIKO CRUSADER (2) was solid last start, finishing fifth over 1500m at this track. Looks close to a win and worth including.
