GOING:

Race 6 1400m

Track:      

Moderate pace with Raria taking up the running ahead of Magic Takt and Links Priere. MAGIC TAKT (7) was in the firing line on the corner and ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1400m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. PECHE PLATE (4) ran a bold race over this journey when resuming last start, racing on the pace and sticking on strongly to finish 6 lengths away in third at this track. It doesn't get any easier but on her best form she is good enough to take this out. RARIA (6) is a eight-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was beaten 36 lengths when sixth over 1600m at this track. Will derive great benefit from that outing and deserves consideration. NANA CHANCE (3) was beaten 4 lengths into fourth over 1400m at this track a week-and-a-half ago. Capable of featuring prominently.
