GOING:

Race 6 1500m

Track:      

Moderate pace with Diaphanes taking up the running ahead of Best Dancer and Kiyosumi. DIAPHANES (8) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing third last time out over 1500m at this track. Nicely placed to feature in the finish again. KIYOSUMI (7) is still a maiden after 10 starts. Managed to find the placings two starts back when resuming before finishing seventh over 1400m at this track last start. Cannot be left out of calculations. ALTIORA (1) is a five-start maiden who finished fifth at her most recent appearance over 1400m at this track. Finds the right race and is worth consideration. BEST DANCER (2) was fourth at the second run back from a break over 1500m at this track last time out. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
