GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Plenty of pressure from Sayono Fuji, Attrarre and Anti Jamila battling for the lead over Athena Parthenos. SMART CARINA (1) made it three wins on the bounce last start when she scored by 0.8 lengths over 1300m at this track. Nicely placed to take this out. ANTI JAMILA (3) was in the money two starts back at this track but was unable to repeat the effort last time when tenth, beaten 8 lengths, at this track over 1400m. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. RAIU (5) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1400m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. SAYONO FUJI (7) turned in a fine effort to score by 3 lengths at today's course and distance last start in a far better run. Nicely placed to score once again.
