GOING:

Race 6 800m

Track:      

Stella Boulogne should lead at a strong tempo. STELLA BOULOGNE (1) turned in a fine effort to score by 1.5 lengths at today's track and distance last time out to continue her outstanding recent form. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot repeat the dose. CAST LIGHT ON (7) is having her first run since November 28. Has a very good fresh record, scoring two times including one over 800m at this track at the start of last prep. Has found a nice race to kick off the campaign. MAJUTSUSHI KAERU (3) finished third last time over 800m at this track, beaten 7 lengths. Has a good record at this course and distance, including a win and two minor placings. Hard to beat in this suitable race. SANSHISUIMEI (9) returns from a spell of three-and-a-half months and is having her first run for a new yard. Was a winner when fresh last campaign at this track over 800m.
