GOING:

Race 8 1230m

Track:      

Genuine tempo from T O Varnay leading Rachael Pegasus. T O VARNAY (2) scored last time over 1230m at this track, making it three victories from three appearances this time in. The one to beat again. REINA BONITA (3) finished out of the money when seventh in a 1400m contest at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. The engagement of F Komaki is noteworthy. Well placed and look for an improved run. RACHAEL PEGASUS (8) missed the frame when fourth in a 1230m contest at this track a week-and-a-half ago. Has her share of talent and deserves another chance. TAPUCHAN (1) got the prize two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when ninth over 1230m here. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role.
