GOING: G

Allowance Race 1400m

Track: FIRM      

Expecting Venus Rose to take up the running with Elise Dia and Meisho Peace close at hand. ELISE DIA (4) finished third two runs back at Tokyo Dirt then improved last time out to score by a neck as favourite over 1400m at Chukyo Dirt. It doesn't get any easier but on current form she is capable of another big performance. VENUS ROSE (7) started at $5.20 last time and ran below expectations, finishing ninth and beaten 7 lengths at Chukyo over 1400m after being in the firing line on the turn. Perfectly placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. MEISHO PEACE (1) finished 4.5 lengths away in tenth last time out over 1200m at Hanshin when first up from a spell. Tackles a longer journey this time. Capable of testing this field. POLIFOLIA (2) was beaten 5.5 lengths into eighth over 1400m at Chukyo at her latest appearance. Finds a nice race and can atone.
