GOING:

BAKUSHIN TOKUBETSU 1000m

Track:      

Hot pace certain with Peisha Val Two, Honey Laurier and Kintra Dancer keen to take up the running. Race drops away quickly. HONEY LAURIER (11) returns after a spell of 11 weeks. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1200m at Fukushima. Super consistent and expected to take catching. CALENDULA (8) is back after a break of 11 weeks. Looking to emulate her win at Fukushima at the beginning of last prep. Has found the right race. COOL BABY (17) finished 11th over 1600m at Tokyo at her most recent appearance on May 17. Best figures stack up and can make her presence felt. LORD TRESOR (13) ran below expectations last start, finishing fifth and beaten 3 lengths at Fukushima over 1200m. Nicely placed to bounce back.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. Not raced for 43 days.
