GOING:

Race 8 1500m

Track:      

Expecting a moderate pace headed by Modern Lady and Shake It Up. SMART ERABLE (4) could only manage to finish fifth at her latest appearance over 1500m at this track. Likely to be in the finish in this suitable assignment. SHAKE IT UP (6) gave a bold sight at the latest appearance over 1500m at this track but dropped out to finish eighth. Rates highly on best form and worth another chance. TACTICA (5) pushed forward from a wide draw last time out and was prominent for a long way before fading to finish seventh over 1500m at this track. Well placed and expected to feature. AGNES (10) went forward last time but couldn't quicken in the run home and finished eighth over 1500m at this track. No surprise if she figured in the finish.
