GOING:

Race 8 1400m

Track:      

Genuine pace with Tambaffe finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. STELLA MARINA (12) was safely held in tougher company two runs back then appreciated the drop in grade last time and scored over this course and distance. Can continue the winning form. SHORINO MAI (4) is racing well, scoring two back at this track before finishing a neck from the winner in second last time here. Deserves another chance. KUROSHINJU (6) has put together back-to-back placings. Meeting a deeper field this time but she good enough to play a major role. EIYU MAX (3) finished third last time here when resuming from a spell. Taking on a better line-up this time but he is up to the challenge.
