GOING:

Race 5 1200m

Track:      

Fast pace assured with Lingus Rocher, Two M Fleek and Abelia Face leading the charge. ABELIA FACE (7) scored at this track last time out with 3 lengths in reserve at the end of 1200m. Has a fair record at this track with a win and seven placings. Ryoya Sawada stays on. Sure to play a big role. COCO ARISTA (10) proved too strong two runs ago at this track. Couldn't follow that up last time out when 12th over 1600m at this track. Masashige Honda gets the best out of this three-year-old filly. Finds a suitable race and can rediscover winning form. TEKA PO (3) has been racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track over 1200m. Nice alley so must be a leading chance again. TWO M FLEEK (9) has been below best form in two runs so far this campaign, the latest when sixth beaten by 5.5 lengths at this track. Well placed in this line up and could challenge for a minor placing this time.
