GOING: G

Race 3 1500m

Track: GOOD      

Genuine pace with Cloche Noire taking up the running ahead of Mistra and Jo Kai. MISTRA (1) didn't do a bad job when fourth last start over 1500m at Kawasaki, beaten 2.5 lengths. That followed a win at this track the start prior. Has the ability to figure prominently. CLOCHE NOIRE (6) was always forward and boxed on to finish second over 1500m at this track last time. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Expected to be in the finish. JO KAI (9) was prominent at the bend and finished second last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 3 lengths. Must raise the bar but she has the ability to test this field. TIMELESS BLOOM (8) was beaten 5.5 lengths into fifth over 1200m at Funabashi last time out. Suitably placed so can turn things around.

Racing well. At the latest run 4th of 12 at Kawasaki on May 16 over 1500m, 2.5 len behind Hoshi Princess carrying 56kg at $5. The race before that ran on from midfield and won by 2 len at this track April 23 over 1500m defeating Cloche Noire with 56kg at $5.70. Should enjoy a nice run from the inside stall.
