GOING:

Race 7 1500m

Track:      

Teruken Lentil to take up the running with Venuse and Grass Cheer close at hand. VENUSE (10) finished second at this track and distance at her last appearance four months ago. Comes here with definite claims fresh. TERUKEN LENTIL (4) showed good early dash at the first run after a spell last time out and led for most of the way before being claimed and finishing 1.5 lengths away in second over 1400m at this track. Well-placed and will take running down. MACHIUMA FLORA (12) last appeared when he finished second over 1500m at this track on October 18. Definite top-three chance. LIGHT BONHEUR (8) progressed nicely last start to finish a close third over 1400m at this track. Appeals as a leading player.
