GOING: Y

Maiden Race 1800m

Track:      

Expecting Longing Celine to set a genuine tempo after crossing from wide out. BANG ON TIME (14) came home strongly last start to finish second, beaten 1.3 lengths, over 1800m at Tokyo when fresh from a spell. Sure to go well again. JUNABELA (13) has not raced since her debut on October 18 over 1600m at Tokyo when she finished fourth, beaten 3 lengths. Likely improver who is worth another chance. SOMETHING SWEET (9) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1800m at Fukushima when third, beaten 4 lengths. Likely improver so she is a strong chance. LONGING CELINE (12) wasn't far away on debut last start over 1600m at Tokyo, finishing second and beaten a nose. Can figure in the finish.
