GOING:

Race 8 1400m

Track:      

Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Sawayaka Sawachan. HERO OF CHIGUSA (5) turned in a fine effort to score at today's course and distance last time out to build on a solid first-up result. Going up a level this time but he can win again. MOON BRIDGE (4) recorded a strong maiden win over 1400m at this track last time, getting there by 3.5 lengths. Shaping up nicely and he is right in the mix again. RIBBON PEACH (8) was well supported when resuming last time out over 1400m at this track and proved too strong, scoring by half a length. Open to plenty of improvement and this looks well within her grasp. SAWAYAKA SAWACHAN (3) improved sharply last time out to score by a nose over 1400m at this track four weeks ago. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run.
