GOING:

Race 3 1500m

Track:      

Without an obvious leader, it may be left to Rayleigh Spirit, Fiorire and Tulip to control the tempo. BLOEIEN CHERRY (10) finished 12th when resuming two runs back then did a good job last start but found one better over 1500m at this track, beaten only one length after being in contention on the corner. Nicely placed to take this out. RAYLEIGH SPIRIT (1) was popular in betting last time out but didn't live up to market expectations, finishing fourth over 1400m here. Likely to be in the finish in this suitable assignment. ACHILLEE (9) ran below expectations last time at Kasamatsu, finishing ninth and beaten 14 lengths starting at $4.10. Must raise the bar but a big run will not surprise. COUREUR LAUSANNE (11) last time out was fourth, beaten 6 lengths, over 1500m at this circuit. Will need a good ride from Seigo Tsukamoto off the awkward draw but this looks a nice race for her.
