GOING:

Race 8 1400m

Track:      

Solid pace with Saiseisei finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. G T HAPPY (8) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago then was safely held last time out when fifth over 1400m at this track. Beautifully placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. LEESAN EYE (11) gave away a big start and never came on when resuming last start, finishing ninth over 1300m at this track. Better than that runs suggests and can feature. ROUGE AMALIA (3) missed the frame last start when she settled well back over 1300m at this track, finishing eighth. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. MORNING HAZE (4) was in the money two starts back but couldn't back it up last time when 11th at this track over 1300m. Well placed and should be in the mix.
