Race 4 1200m Track: SOFT |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Solid tempo with Koyomi driving forward f, joined by Yumegoten and Ripening pushing on from closer draws. RIPENING (5) did a great job to score by 1.75 lengths over this course and distance when first-up from a spell last time out. Likely to be there at the finish again. KOYOMI (12) comes here off a break of five-and-a-half months. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1200m at this track. Expect her to play a major role. YUMEGOTEN (6) has not raced since she finished second over 1200m at this track on January 26 2024. Should be involved in the finish. LEGEND WAY (9) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a nice race last time out, finishing second and beaten only 2 lengths over 1200m at this track. Well placed and should be about the money.
