GOING:

Race 4 1400m

Track:      

Or Majes should have enough pace to lead a low-pressure contest. TAISEI VICTORIA (4) was in front on straightening only to be claimed late last start when second at this track over 1400m. Has two minor placings from three runs this preparation. Perfectly placed this time. IRON ROMAN (5) is yet to break through after six career starts but was in the minors two back before finishing fourth at this track last time. Has ability and this offers a great chance to crack the maiden win. FESTIVE MAME (1) finished fifth last start over 1400m at this track when she had to contend with an awkward barrier. Fares better at the draw this time and look for an improved run. KO GAL (2) made progress last time out, finishing third over 1400m at this track. Should be peaking now and is ready to show what she can do.
