GOING:

Race 6 1400m

Track:      

Loving Memory to take up the running with Royal Warrant and Grand Janu close at hand. PAMPHILJ (5) is on a nine-day back-up after finishing in the money over 1400m at this track. Nice run last time and should prove tough to beat. COUNTRY MADAM (2) doesn't win very often but ran a strong race last time out over 1400m at this track, finishing fourth and beaten 1.5 lengths. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. GRAND JANU (3) drew wide last time and was safely held when sixth over this track and trip. Among the better chances. LOVING MEMORY (1) is back after a break of nine weeks. Looking to emulate her win at Morioka Dirt to kick off the last campaign. Comes here with definite top-three claims.
