GOING:

Race 4 1400m

Track:      

Moderate tempo with Danse Belle Reine leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. MOONLIGHT ARIA (1) looks close to a win having put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 1.5 lengths away in second over 1500m at this track. Aided by the inside draw so this could be her chance to break through. DANSE BELLE REINE (8) was fourth when fresh two back then was well found in the betting last time out when beaten less than 6L over 1500m at Nagoya. Steps out for a new yard. This suits so anticipating a big run. GRACIANO (2) looks close to a breakthrough after placing in her last four outings, last time clocking in second at this track over 1500m when beaten 2 lengths. Should be right in this. GEMMY STAR (5) proved too good two runs ago before tackling stronger company last time. Better off here.
