GOING:

Race 9 1400m

Track:      

Plenty of pace likely from Muscat Oman, Whiti Te Ra and Chianti battling for the lead from Ken Bridge Los. CHIANTI (4) proved too strong two runs ago at this track. Safely held last time out when fourth over 1400m at this track, beaten 6 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Myojo Haru Dai is a key engagement. This doesn't look as hard so she is a major player. KASANARU KISEKI (2) improved sharply on her eighth two starts back at this track with a win over 1400m at this track two weeks ago, getting home by 2 lengths after being prominent at the corner. Facing a tougher assignment but she is capable of another big run. MUSCAT OMAN (1) finds it hard to win with just one success from 12 starts. Did a good job last start to finish second over 1400m at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Perfectly placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. FLEUR DE LUNE (3) was beaten 8 lengths into fourth over 1580m at this track at her latest appearance. Has her share of ability and is a top-three prospect.
