GOING:

Race 5 820m

Track:      

Genuine pace with Lien Solide taking up the running ahead of Wrapping Box and Anya Wakuwaku. HERMIONE (9) raced on the speed and found plenty to score by 2 lengths at today's track and trip last start in a far better run. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she is up to the challenge. WRAPPING BOX (10) turned in a fine effort to score by 0.8 lengths at today's track and distance last start to maintain her good form of late. Taking on a better line-up this time but she is up to the challenge. YASHIRO BOY (11) turned things around last start and scored by 5 lengths after being in contention on the bend over 820m at this track. Goes up a rung or two but he is worth serious consideration. ANYA WAKUWAKU (7) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 820m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role.
