GOING: G

Maiden Race 1400m

Track:      

No surprise if the newcomers played a key role in the tempo of the race with little speed on paper. MIKKI TAMBOURINE (10) is on debut for the Manabu Ikezoe stable. Three-year-old filly by Mikki Isle from Mikki Mandolin. Looks set to run well in a race with little depth to the form. SMART SATURN (15) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 3 lengths. Strips fitter and can find winning ways. LUX COLOGNE (8) finished third last time over 1400m at this track when resuming from a spell, beaten 2.5 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run again. JULIA FLORIDA (14) returned from a spell two weeks ago when she was beaten 5.5 lengths into fourth over 1600m at this track. Fitter so watch for a better performance.
