Maiden Race 2000m Track: |

Bright Airy and Earl Grey will press forward in a keen battle for the lead. HISHI NASQUILLO (4) is a three-year-old filly who lines up for the first time. From a strong family that has produced the Gr 3 winner Command Line, being by Contrail from the former top race mare Condo Commando. Sure to be well-educated, being from the Hori stable. Promising type who looks set to make a positive start to her career. CANTINA (8) progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1800m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Looks well placed so expect another big run. BRIGHT AIRY (12) is still a maiden after seven runs. Was popular in betting last time out but didn't live up to market expectations, finishing fourth over 2000m at Fukushima. Expected to feature in the finish this time. CHERIE CHOUCHOU (13) returns after 12 weeks in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with an eighth over 2400m at this track. Rates highly on best form and a bright return wouldn't surprise.
