GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Without a recognised leader, Raijin City and Golden Lady will likely set the pace. GOLDEN LADY (5) raced on the pace when resuming last start and lifted strongly to hold second, beaten 8 lengths, over today's journey at this track. Hard to beat in this suitable race. RAIJIN CITY (4) returned from a spell a week ago when he was beaten 10 lengths into fifth over 1400m at this track. Fitter this time. Hard to beat in this suitable race. ASUMA STEVE (2) finished third at this track and distance at his last appearance 11 weeks ago. Makes plenty of appeal. MEISHO MICHI ROKU (7) never really threatened when resuming last time out, finishing midfield and beaten 6 lengths over 1400m at this track. In the mix.
