GOING:

Race 6 820m

Track:      

Plenty of pace from the outset with Rodin Star and Arajai leading the charge. ARAJAI (6) ran below expectations last time out at this track, finishing fifth starting at $5.10. Finds a more suitable contest and can make amends. VACLAV (4) improved last start but found one better over 1230m at this track. Faces an easier assignment so he is all set to build on that latest effort. MODEL CHAN (7) did little and finished tenth over 1700m at this track last start. Can measure up with the right run. WAKINO LUCE (8) gave away a big start at the top of the straight last start and finished eighth over 1230m at this track. Suited in this line-up and is among the better hopes.
