GOING:

Race 8 1200m

Track:      

Solid tempo from Camarade Marie, Speed Star and Sakura Scintiller battling for the lead in a high-pressure contest. DANJU KARIYUSHI (6) has been racing well this prep, scoring last start over 1000m at this track to make it three wins from four runs this time in. Brings solid form to this contest. Big chance. SPEED STAR (5) went forward last start and gave a sight but faded late to finish third over 1000m at this track. Should go forward again and she will take catching. SAKURA SCINTILLER (2) met with solid support last start over 1200m at this track when sixth. Form over this course and distance is solid with a win and two minor placings from four starts. One of the main contenders. TAKAMAKI THREE (1) turned things around last start and got the job done by a neck over 1000m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run.
