GOING:

Race 8 1000m

Track:      

Pace strong with Stella Boulogne and Convallaria leading with Ten Arion nearby. CONVALLARIA (4) was a determined winner last time at this track, scoring by a head over this distance. Gets some weight relief this time and another bold showing is expected. HAPPY PINK (11) got the prize two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when seventh over 1000m at this track. Can bounce right back. AFRICAN LILY (3) proved too strong two runs ago but was not as effective last time out when eighth over 1000m at this track. Suitably placed and anticipating a better run here. STELLA BOULOGNE (5) was prominent until they straightened last time then weakened to finish fifth over 1000m at this track. Suited in this lineup and is among the better hopes.
