GOING:

Race 4 1200m

Track: AW     True  

From wide out Sun Sun La Luna and Love Love Four can set up a strong tempo. KAZENO HAGAKURE (9) won her maiden over this course and distance last start, getting the verdict by 3.5 lengths. Shaping up nicely and she should be in the finish. SUN SUN LA LUNA (16) was sent out favourite last time and scored by one length over today's trip at this track. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including a win and a placing. Rates highly and can measure up. OI KUMOYO (14) showed early speed from an outside draw when resuming last start and raced on the pace before boxing on well to finish second, only beaten a nose, over 1400m at this track. Anticipating a big run again. CLARK (10) is back from a spell of eight months. Won on debut at the only appearance last prep in a 1200m contest at this track by 0.8 lengths. Right in this.
