GOING: G

Maiden Race 1400m

Track:      

Certain to be a strong tempo with Cosmo Lapa Uila, Logi Skaya and A Shin With All leading the charge. BALANCOIRE (2) wound up strongly last time out to finish 1.5 lengths adrift in third over 1200m at Fukushima on debut. Should be winding up late again. CALENDULA (3) is close to breaking through after finishing second last start over 1400m at this track when she was in the firing line all the way. Looks well placed so expect another big run. HOT TO TROT (9) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths into fourth. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. LOGI SKAYA (18) ran a fair race on debut last time out, beaten 11 lengths into eighth over 1600m at this track on August 3. Shapes as one to consider.
