Verdict

LOVELY YOSHINO (3) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second last start over 1m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. MINNANO BUMMO (8) finished ninth two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by 0.8 lengths over 7f at this track. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. I AM IBUSHIGIN (5) missed the placings two runs back then did well last start but found a couple better over 7f at this track, beaten only 1.75 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. NONSTOP GIRL (9) finished 6 lengths behind the winner in eighth over 1m at this track last start after lifting strongly to score two runs back. Should be poised just off the lead. Solid claims on best form.
