GOING:

Race 6 1400m

Track:      

Solid tempo anticipated with Ryuno Hinako taking charge. ACCUEILLIR (5) finished second over this track and trip last time out following a determined win two back. Terrific chance to return to the winners' list. RYUNO HINAKO (8) did well to score at this track two runs ago. Decent effort last time out when in contention on the corner before finishing third here, beaten 1.5 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. YUINO OTOSHIANA (7) doesn't win out of turn but ran a strong race last time out here, finishing second and beaten half a length. Likely improver with strong prospects. JUNE QUEST (10) was disappointing last time out when in the market. That followed a good second the run prior. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time.
