Maiden Race 1400m Track: FIRM |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Loads of pressure, primarily from Nishino Mare, Rouge Astrea and June Retriever. GRAN MAESTRO (6) resumes from a spell of nine weeks. Raced just once when last in work and finished third over 1600m at this track. Placed at three of four runs, all at this circuit, and the maiden win looks imminent. DANON KELLY (11) finished third on debut three-and-a-half months ago, beaten 2.25 lengths over 1600m at Nakayama, and has not been produced since. Likely improver this prep and should feature in the finish. LILAS (3) is back from a spell of three-and-a-half months. Closed last prep with a sixth, beaten 5.5 lengths, over 1600m at Nakayama. Among the main hopes. ROUGE ASTREA (5) closed the last campaign nine weeks ago when she finished fourth over 1600m at this track. Can give this a shake.
