GOING:

Race 3 1200m

Track:      

The race lacks early speed so doubt they will go too hard. JUST HOLD (8) is a two-start maiden who looks close to a win after placing at both runs, the latest when second over 1200m at this track. Going well and is one of the major players. BELLE TOMO (1) returned from a break last start with a mediocre eighth over 1000m at this track after giving away a big start. Fitter and finds a suitable race. GREASE (3) finished out of the money when fourth in a 1000m contest at this track two weeks ago. Finds a nice race and can take this out. YOSHINO AVANCE (5) turned in a better run last start when fifth over 1200m at this track. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
