GOING:

Race 7 1400m

Track:      

Plenty of pace with Flame Force and Yamanin Philia leading from Last Ticket. FLAME FORCE (1) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish a long neck away in third over 1400m at this track. Should be prominent again from the low draw and shapes as a key runner. LAST TICKET (2) went forward and gave a sight when placed over 820m at this track last time. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Will give a great sight. WARERA HOSHINOKO (7) has been in the money at her last couple of runs, the latest when second over 1400m at this track. Sure to be competitive. ONE OF US (4) improved last time out, finishing third over 1400m at this track. Nicely placed to take this out.
