GOING:

Race 5 1200m

Track:      

Genuine pace with Will Sky finding the front from his low draw. WILL SKY (3) pushed forward from a wide draw last time out and found the front, holding the lead for most of the way and sticking on well to finish second over 1200m at this track. Will take catching. LANDOWSKA (10) was a determined maiden winner last time out, scoring by a nose over 1200m at this track. Breaks from a wide alley but she is worth including. GEOPARK MOON (8) did little and finished 16 lengths from the winner in eighth over 1500m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than her fourth at this track the run before. Nicely placed to get the prize. ETERNAL FIZZ (12) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1400m at Urawa. This looks a good race for her so another forward showing looks likely.

Last start ran second last of 9 at Urawa on August 10 over 800m, 9 len behind Mico Departure with 54kg at $90.50. Before that crossed from a wide gate to lead but couldn't hold on when 3rd of 12 at Urawa on July 17 over 800m, 4 len behind Sable Love carrying 55kg at $19.80. Latest form makes this a pretty tough assignment.
