GOING:

Race 8 1400m

Track: AW      

Moderate tempo with Tosen Sabrina leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. TOSEN SABRINA (1) resumes. Didn't make an impact at her only run last prep on January 12 finishing fourth and beaten 5 lengths over 1400m at this track. This is her optimum trip with five wins from eight starts and is expected to feature. CREUSA (6) drifted well back and failed to finish it off last start when eighth, beaten 10 lengths, over 800m at this track. Taking on a better line-up this time but she can win if at her best. FOR LILIANA (3) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 12 lengths when ninth over 1500m at Kawasaki a week-and-a-half ago after being in contention on the turn. Taking on a better field but she is capable of running a bold race. ROSSO AMORE (5) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 900m at Kawasaki, beaten 3.5 lengths. Likely to hold the form and is a strong top-three prospect.
