YODONO TAIYO (3) recorded his maiden win three back and is ready to score again after a couple of recent minor placings, the latest when second at this track. Commendable record at this trip with a win and two minor placings and is sure to play a big role. NANAN (5) showed good early speed then led into the straight last start before fighting on to finish second, beaten a neck, over 1400m at this track. Should go well. CHERRY RUSSIAN (1) showed good early speed last start over today's journey at this track before finishing third, beaten 1.1 lengths. Placed to advantage and can take this out. BONNE NOUVELLE (8) did a great job to score by a neck over this course and distance last start in a far better effort. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat again in this suitable race.
