Just a moderate pace anticipated. KITANOLESCLEFSD'OR (1) broke through for her maiden win over 1200m at this track last time, scoring comfortably. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Nicely drawn on the fence and she is likely to feature in the finish again. FIRE SALAMANDER (3) is still a maiden after 15 starts. Could only manage to finish 11th last time out over 1230m at Sonoda following a minor placing at Sonoda over 1400m the run prior. Among the leading chances. ALMA SAGA (4) has been in the placings at her last two starts, finishing second last time when she was prominent throughout over 1200m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. LEON ANTHA (2) scored two back at this track but was below her best last time when sixth over 1400m at this track. Worth another chance.
