GOING:

Race 9 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo from Hiruno Galicia leading Kapua. HIRUNO GALICIA (7) turned in a fine effort to score by 30 lengths at today's track and distance last start in a far better run. Meeting a deeper field this time but he is good enough to play a major role. VOGELWAND (8) built on a nice second two starts back at this track with a win as public elect over 1400m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 0.8 lengths. Shigeharu Mabuchi scored on her last time and retains the ride. Capable of testing her rivals. DEA LUCE (6) was an impressive winner last time over 1400m at this track, scoring by 2 lengths to make it three on the bounce. Yet to miss the placings at this circuit, including three wins. Should be involved in the finish. MARIENPLATZ (10) turned in a much better effort last time out to score by 3 lengths over 1400m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run.
