GOING:

Race 6 820m

Track:      

Despite the outside draw Seiun Superior can take it up in what looks to be a low-pressure contest. LOVE STINGER (9) has been racing in great heart with two top-three finishes on end, the latest a third over 820m at this track when she was always up in the leading division. Can play a pivotal role. BAIKAL (4) raced below her best last time when seventh over 820m at this track. Best figures measure up nicely and capable of sharp improvement. SEIUN SUPERIOR (12) was in the money two starts back but couldn't back it up last time when tenth at this track over 1400m. In the mix. WIN VIEW (7) is back after a break of four months. Went close to a maiden win before the layoff, finishing third at her latest appearance over 1230m at this track. Anticipating a bright start to this prep.
