GOING:

Race 5 1750m

Track:      

Strong pace from S C Alber and Londonderry Air matching motors with Mitono Dream close at hand. S C ALBER (4) has 10 wins and six minor placings from 19 runs this preparation. Found one better last start at this track over 1750m after being up on the pace all the way. This looks the ideal assignment. BORNEO (9) built on a nice second two starts back at this track with success over 1750m at this track three weeks ago, getting home by 1.5 lengths. Could be hard to beat in this suitable race. MITONO DREAM (1) showed good early dash and raced on the speed last start before fading to finish fourth over 1750m at this track. One of the main contenders. LOULOU FEUILLE (8) produced a reasonable effort when second last start over 1400m at this track. That followed a win at Kochi the start prior. Worth including.
