GOING:

Race 5 800m

Track:      

Fortitude should find the front with Pattsun Dress and Earth Fang on her heels. FORTITUDE (9) scored by 1.5 lengths last start at this track over this distance. Has a strong record at this trip, scoring two times from four starts. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Can play a major role. EARTH FANG (4) was on the speed from the rails draw last start and battled on well to finish second over 900m at Kawasaki. Must raise the bar but he has the ability to test this field. PATTSUN DRESS (5) is a progressive three-year-old filly who hasn't raced since finishing third over 900m at Kawasaki on February 6 which was the only run of that prep. Has never missed the frame when fresh from a spell in two starts. Should be poised just off the lead. Sure to be competitive. SARA MISCHIEF (3) showed early speed from a good draw when returning from a break last time and battled on to finish fourth over 800m at this track. Can feature in the finish.
