GOING:

Race 5 1300m

Track:      

Reasonable tempo with Kigata Rei probably leading but a few others should keep her honest. KIGATA REI (6) was an impressive winner last time over 1400m at this track, scoring by 4 lengths and making it two straight wins. The testing material. COSMO VIOLA (5) continued a hot streak of form, winning over 1400m at this track last start to make it three straight. Effortless win last time out and should be in the finish again. COUPE (1) is finding the breakthrough elusive, finishing ninth at his latest appearance over 1300m at this track. Has a decent record at this trip with three minor placings from four tries and shapes as one to consider. STAR GIRL (8) improved last start to finish second over 1300m at this track. Well placed and can figure in the finish again.
