GOING:

Race 5 820m

Track:      

Scene De Neige should have enough pace to lead a low-pressure contest. HO O SIX (1) made progress last time out, finishing 4 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 820m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. SCENE DE NEIGE (4) did little and finished 6 lengths from the winner in sixth over 1230m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than her fifth at this track the run before. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. KAIRASHI (3) last appeared when she finished second over 1230m at this track on August 8. Among the better hopes. KINSHO GLOIRE (10) ran a better race last start, finishing 5 lengths away in fifth over 820m at this track. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
