GOING: G

Allowance Race 2000m

Track:      

Pace strong with Taketombo and Eco Tailor leading with Stella Crown nearby. STELLA CROWN (3) has been in good form, scoring three back at Hanshin then placing twice in a row, most recently finishing second when she was prominent throughout over 2000m at this track. Has the ability to take care of this field. FAMILY TREE (4) finished 3 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1800m at this track four weeks ago. Steps up in distance today. Major player in this line up. HONEYCOMB (1) was in the firing line on the turn and finished second last start over 1800m at Tokyo, beaten 3.5 lengths. Faces an easier assignment so she is a major player. TAKETOMBO (2) was in contention on the corner and finished third last start over 1800m at this track, beaten 2 lengths. Fitter for that run. Nicely placed to play a role in the finish.
