GOING:

Race 4 1300m

Track:      

Reasonable tempo with Grand Cru probably leading but a few others should keep her honest. GRAND CRU (1) scored her maiden win here last time out over this trip, getting the decision by 3 lengths. Winning rider Tatsunori Sugawara stays aboard and she looks certain to measure up again. MARINO THERESIA (9) did a great job to score over this course and distance last start to maintain her good form of late. No reason she cannot salute again. GUILLERMO (2) made progress last start to finish second here after being in the firing line on the corner. Looks well placed so expect another big run. PEACE ONE DOLCE (3) resumes and has proven a capable type on his day. Worth keeping in mind.

Recent form sound. At the latest run favourite; won by 3 len at this track December 8 over 1300m defeating Meisho Lilium with 54kg at $1.80.

Excellent winning chance with the help of an inside barrier.
