GOING:

Race 6 820m

Track:      

Expecting Scarlet Honey to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint course. TAMANO LUNA (1) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.3 lengths from the winner in third over 820m at this track after being in contention on the turn. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. SCARLET HONEY (4) was in the firing line on the bend and ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 820m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. LILY PARK (8) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 7 lengths when fifth over 820m at this track three weeks ago. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. SHAN DIAN (10) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing seventh at this track over 1400m. Can break the run of outs.
