GOING:

Race 9 1400m

Track:      

The pace looks strong from the outset. MAHIOLE (4) returns from a break of nine weeks. Genuine performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a win over 900m at this track. Ideally placed to score while fresh. FRAISES TARTE (6) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 2.5 lengths away in third over 1500m at this track when she was always up in the leading division. Must raise the bar but this looks well within her grasp. SILVER STELLA (7) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1500m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she deserves plenty of thought. YUKIGESHO (2) was in the money two starts back at this track but couldn't back it up last time when eighth, beaten 14 lengths, at this track over 1500m. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.
