GOING:

Race 6 820m

Track:      

A solid tempo is on the cards with Spyware and Madam Ladybug pushing for the lead ahead of Promettre and Elegant Fleur. PROMETTRE (8) showed good early speed last start over today's journey at this track before finishing third. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run again. MADAM LADYBUG (3) showed good early speed then led into the straight last start before fighting on to finish second, beaten a neck, over 820m at this track. Solid run last time and will take catching again. SPYWARE (7) was last at the races when he finished eighth over 800m at Himeji on March 12. Comes here with definite top-three claims. MEISHO KORAN (6) missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, finishing sixth. Nagao Tasuku gets the best out of this six-year-old mare. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time.
