Race 5 1400m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|

Moderate tempo headed by Himeno Jackal, Ace Raising and Via. BOUQUET OF IRIS (9) missed the frame last start when he settled well back over 1400m at this track, finishing fifth. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. HELLEBORE BLANCHE (7) did little and finished sixth over 1400m at this track last start after being in the firing line on the turn. Capable on her day and finds a nice race to break the drought. HIMENO JACKAL (2) comes here off a break of seven months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1300m at this track. Makes plenty of appeal. ACE RAISING (8) was fourth over 1400m at this track two weeks ago. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
