GOING:

Race 8 1500m

Track:      

Solid tempo anticipated with Land Sur and Mitekure Kono Ashi leading the way. MIRACOLO CANALE (10) improved sharply on his sixth two starts back with a win as public elect over 1400m at this track two weeks ago, getting home by 3 lengths. Everything points towards another big run. SAKURA SALUTE (8) finished third last time out at this track. On a 10-day back-up. Drawn out but shapes as a major threat. GOOD LUCK STAR (1) won three times earlier on in her prep, then most recently finished fourth beaten 2.25 lengths at this track over 1500m. Can contest the finish. LAND SUR (6) had been in great form winning two on end before finishing third last time out over 1500m at this track. Worth another chance on a back-up of a week-and-a-half.
