GOING:

Race 9 1500m

Track:      

Genuine pace with Jina taking up the running ahead of Gagne and Globe Fame. GLOBE FAME (5) finished second as favourite last time out over 1500m at this track, making it two minor placings from three starts this time in work. Goes well here including three wins and could be tough to beat. JINA (1) showed good early muster and fought on to finish third when resuming last start over 1500m at this track. Will take advantage of the good draw. Likely improver with strong prospects. MARUTOKU LAUREL (3) missed the frame last start over 1700m at this track, finishing seventh after being in contention on the turn. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. GAGNE (7) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1500m at this track. Sure to play a big role.
