GOING: G

Allowance Race 2000m

Track: FIRM      

Thurston Chicago, Granite Peak and Ressortir to vie for early honours at a solid tempo. SEIUN PURSUIT (5) doesn't win very often but ran a strong race last time out over 2200m at Nakayama, finishing second and beaten 1.3 lengths. Nicely placed to take this out. ENGLAND EYES (6) lines up for the first time since December 23. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 2000m at this track. Expect her to play a major role. GOLD SHEEN (4) is a progressive galloper who is first-up since finishing fifth over 1800m at this track ten weeks ago which was the only run of that prep. Sure to be competitive. GIRLS' LEGEND (8) is back from a spell of ten weeks. Raced once last campaign and finished third over 1800m at this track. Takeshi Yokoyama goes well on this four-year-old and is back on top today. Worth including in calculations.
