GOING:

Race 6 1500m

Track:      

Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by Fuji Fantasista. IRON PURSUIT (2) lines up on the back of a 2-length fourth over 1500m at this track as favourite. Goes well at this journey with three wins from nine starts. Credentials hard to knock and can feature. SATOMIN (7) has been in the money at her last couple of runs, the latest when second over 1500m at this track. Great chance to find the winners' enclosure. FUJI FANTASISTA (6) went forward and gave a great sight when second over 1500m at this track last time out. Has a decent record at this track and has winning claims on best figures. EERSTE STER (3) improved last start but found a couple better over 1500m at this track, beaten just 1.3 lengths. No surprise to see her in the mix.
