GOING:

Race 4 1500m

Track:      

Expecting Ginger Pan to take up the running with Maiden's Prayer and T O Engels close at hand. FAIRY PRESTO (4) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest effort a fifth over 1500m at this track two weeks ago. Has upside and expected to be in the finish this time. T O ENGELS (12) failed to feature last start when fifth over 1500m at this track. Hiroki Murakami stays on and although yet to win has been in the money on two occasions. Look for an improved run. GINGER PAN (3) was comfortably accounted for when 11th last time out over 920m here after a win at this track at the previous outing. Out in trip and can bounce back. BELLA FLOR (8) finished tenth at her most recent appearance over 1500m at this track. Solid top-three chance on her best figures.
