GOING:

Race 8 1500m

Track:      

Moderate tempo with Salt Miracle leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. SWEEP REGINA (5) won her maiden four starts back and is ready to salute again after a string of recent placings, the latest when second over 1500m at this track. Has a good association with Hiroki Murakami with a run of three top-three results. Likely to feature. SAMMAIME (1) landed his maiden success over this course and distance last time, scoring by 2 lengths. Winning rider Sachio Yamada stays aboard and he cannot be discounted. SALT MIRACLE (8) is a distance specialist who finished ninth two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by 3 lengths after being in contention on the turn over 1500m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. AIO LANAKILA (6) is a last-start winner two weeks ago, scoring by 0.8 lengths over 1500m at this track. Ticks all the right boxes.

The race before that 4th of 12 at this track on April 9 over 1500m, 3 len behind Grass Tiara with 57kg at $4.40. Makes plenty of appeal from the inside barrier.
