GOING:

Race 4 1500m

Track:      

Genuine tempo from Chocolate Cake leading Heavenly Sky. CHOCOLATE CAKE (3) finished third at this track over this distance at her latest outing. Form here strong boasting two wins from four starts. Leading contender. MEINER LA GEMME (8) is ready to win after another minor placing last start, finishing second over 1500m at this track. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. MASANO LILY (11) was safely held last time when seventh at today's course and distance after being well backed. Has a wide gate to contend with again but can bounce back. NANYO REQUEST (5) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when second over 1400m at this track. Likely to be about the mark again.
