Saga Race 5 - Race 5 - 1400
FRANCINA TESORO (3) was an impressive winner last time over 1400m at this track, leading throughout and putting 5 lengths on her rivals. Sure to run well again. KASHINO MENKOCHAN (1) is ready to win after another minor placing last start, finishing second over 1400m at this track when she was always up in the leading division. Nicely placed to find winning ways. MARIETTY (10) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track over 1400m. Awkwardly drawn and might need a little luck early. Looks well placed this line-up so expect another big run. HEROIC ROY (4) knuckled down strongly to get within 1.5 lengths of the winner in second last start over 1400m at this track. Will drift back but wind up late. Solid claims on best form.
