GOING:

Race 9 1500m

Track:      

Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Cerezo Reina. MISTY BLUE (4) finished fifth over 1500m at this track last time out after a gutsy win two runs back. Should camp just off the leaders. Best figures should see him run well. CEREZO REINA (7) scored by 3 lengths last start at this track over 2000m. Has a very good record over today's journey with three wins from six starts. Should be prominent from the outset. Expecting a bold showing. HO O ENISHI (6) was prominent from the outset over 1500m at this track last time, holding on well to finish a close second. That followed a win at this track the start prior. Well placed and a key runner. WHITTINGHAM (2) turned in a fine effort to score by a neck at this track and distance last start in a far better effort. Finds another suitable race and can go on with the job.
