GOING:

Race 4 1500m

Track:      

Shining Rose to take charge ahead of Kitasan Bambina at a good tempo. PARTIDA (9) is racing well, scoring two back at this track before finishing 1.5 lengths from the winner in second last time over 1400m here. Well placed and worth another chance. KITASAN BAMBINA (5) is racing well, scoring by a neck two back at this circuit then finishing a respectable fourth last time over 1500m here when not too far away. Should camp just off the leaders and her best form puts her right in this. AMIENS (4) started at $3.40 last time and ran below expectations, finishing sixth and beaten 6 lengths at this course over 1500m. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. CHROME NOIR (8) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1500m at this venue, beaten 9 lengths. Fitter now so can feature in the finish.
