GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Blue Applause to take charge ahead of Fragranza at a solid tempo. BLUE APPLAUSE (8) has won four from seven and is unbeaten in two runs this preparation, including a track and distance victory last start. In top form and expected to go close again. FELICE RALLY (4) settled well back then found the line nicely to finish fourth, beaten 5 lengths, over this journey at this track last time out. Will drift back but is going to be hard to hold out. SANTO GRAAL (2) worked home well and finished 3.5 lengths from the winner in fifth last start over 1400m at this track, an improvement on her seventh at this track the run before. Will enjoy a drop in class so she can find the winners' list. FRAGRANZA (3) showed good early dash and raced on the speed at the first run back from a break last start before fading to finish 13 lengths back in 12th over 1600m at this track. Solid top-three prospects.
