RACE 1 (1,400M) All first-timers are well-bred but (15) SPUMANTE DOLCE and (13) GIMME PASSION could be the ones over this distance.
(17) WARNING SOUND was well beaten on debut but she showed inexperience and can only improve. She is also well-related.
(16) THE MIGHTIEST was drawn wide in her first try round a bend last time. She has not done badly and should be up there.
RACE 2 (1,400M) (4) PIBE DE ORO has high class form having met some of the best around. He is overdue and should prefer the longer distance.
(18) SATYAGRAHA ran a fair race on debut. He is also well-bred being by One World and he has drawn alongside Pibe De Oro so it should be a great race.
(11) CHABAL was beaten as favourite in his last start but is still learning. He will not be far off.
(14) GREEN CHERRY found 1,000m a bit short on debut. He is a Gimmethegreenlight/Tiger Ridge cross and could improve.
RACE 3 (1,800M) (3) GLORIA MUNDI has improved of late and could open her account.
