GOING: S

Race 9 1200m

Track: SOFT      

Expecting Lux Dion to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint course. LUX DION (5) returns from a spell of four months. Closed off last prep in great form including a dominant win over 1200m at this track at her most recent appearance. Should be prominent from the outset. Will play a major role. CLAIR JACK (16) settled well back and didn't fire over 1200m at this track last time out when in the market. That followed a good third the run prior. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. DETONATOR (4) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1200m at this track, beaten 2 lengths. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. ABENIN TIARA (10) finished 5.5 lengths back in sixth over 1000m at this track last time out after a gutsy win two runs back. Should camp just off the leaders. Keep safe.
