GOING: S

Race 8 1400m

Track: SOFT     True  

Pace strong from Kazuno Ikezuki and Una Montana Alta vying for the lead closely attended by B I Felipe. UNA MONTANA ALTA (3) was in a different class last time when a dominant 5-length winner over 1200m at this track, adding to his fine recent form. Top chance once again. B I FELIPE (4) returns from a layoff of five-and-a-half months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1200m at this track. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. HELLO CANDY (11) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fifth over 1400m at this track. Placed to advantage so expect a better run this time. KOA LIO (10) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when eighth over 1400m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can bounce straight back into the money here.
