|---|---|---|---|---|

The race pace in this Maiden Mile looks okay for the vast majority of the event. KINTARO (2) was a decent effort at debut and is a massive improver here. Better barrier today and he can win this. SATIN DOLL (7) has run well in her last two runs. She can handle dry and wet ground and is a quinella and trifecta chance drawn well in this. BELLAFRANCA (8) is better than a single-placed mare. She ran well at her last start too. Wide gate but is certainly not out of this at all. PEERLESS (6) was a very good improver at his last start. Can pay a dividend or be in the first four today for sure. DUBAI GOLD (10) is a twice-placed filly. She has not gone a bad race. Well drawn here and include everywhere. SUGGESTED PLAY: Kintaro and Peerless are win wagers.
