GOING:

Race 3 1500m

Track:      

Looks a keen contest with Spring Come and Ecoro Glorious pressing for the lead with Waag's Tea and Sun Cortez close at hand. ECORO GLORIOUS (4) is a model of consistency with top-three finishes at his last four starts, most recently scoring over 1400m at Kasamatsu. Can measure up again. WAAG'S TEA (12) ran below expectations last time out, finishing fifth starting at $5.40. Best form stacks up nicely and deserves another chance. SPRING COME (9) met with solid support last time out but could only manage to finish eighth over 1500m at this track in a disappointing performance. Look for an improved run here. SHINING WAY (6) ran below her best last start when finishing sixth from a wide draw over today's course and distance. Capable of sharp improvement.
