GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with Yuna Pink Gold leading the way. YUNA PINK GOLD (4) was beaten just a head when second at her latest appearance at Sonoda over 1400m. Expected to feature. SATIN BODICE (2) ran a strong race last time out over 1400m at this track, finishing third. Capable enough on her day and is a key runner. TAMBAFFE (7) ran fourth at her latest appearance over 1400m at Sonoda, finishing 4.5 lengths from the winner. Has claims. KAKOGAN (5) has not raced since finishing tenth over 1400m at Sonoda on August 21. Can give this a shake fresh.
