GOING:

Race 4 1500m

Track:      

Expecting Lovers Blue to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. MEISHO YORIKIRI (6) did a great job to score by 1.5 lengths over today's course and distance when resuming from a spell last start. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat again in this suitable race. LOVERS BLUE (9) was sent out favourite last time and scored by 3 lengths at this track. Has started three times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Will give a great sight. SEVEN SPRINGS (4) again failed to feature last start, finishing 12th and beaten 7 lengths over 1500m at this track. Looks well placed and a bold showing is expected. FRUIT WAGON (3) finished fourth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1500m at this track, beaten 3 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role.
