GOING: G

Allowance Race 1800m

Track: FIRM      

Moderate tempo with Aurora X leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. CAVE PEARL (8) resumes after a break of 12 weeks. Won on debut to launch the last campaign over 1400m at this track. Progressive filly who is expected to go very well. MOMENT HEUREUX (6) was safely held when resuming from a spell behind Mina De Oro at Listed level at this track over 1800m, beaten 5 lengths into sixth. Finds a suitable assignment and can play a big role. AURORA X (3) wasted no time getting off the mark as favourite on debut over 2000m at Hanshin six months ago and has not appeared since. Likely improver with bright prospects again. SAPPHIRE (1) returned from a spell seven weeks ago when she was beaten 2.25 lengths into fifth over 1600m at Niigata. Fitter so anticipating a better run this time.
