GOING:

Allowance Race 2000m

Track:      

Strong tempo with Ray Hope, Air Big Mom and Cosmo Leonardo leading the way. LULU LIMA (6) looks hard to beat with a repeat of latest. Got back to last and changed home for a close-up fifth fresh. Fitter and looks tough to beat. COSMO LEONARDO (5) finished sixth over 2000m at Kokura when resuming last start, beaten only 2 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Has a fair record when second up, including four top-three finishes. Finds a more suitable contest and can get the job done. RIPOSANTE (1) is having her second run back from a break after finishing 3 lengths from the winner in sixth when resuming over 1800m at Tokyo. Has been in the money at each second-up appearance so she should feature in the finish. AIR BIG MOM (11) kicked off this campaign with a win then was not as effective last time out when third over 2000m at Kokura, beaten 3.5 lengths. Expect a better run this time.
