Saga Race 5 - Race 5 - 1300
CHICA POCO (8) finished second two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by 3 lengths as public elect over 1400m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. SMART PIRKA (3) is a consistent performer with 10 minor placings from 13 starts this campaign. Turned in another good effort last time out when third over 1300m at this track after she was prominent throughout. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. CERULEAN ROCKET (10) missed the placings two runs back then didn't feature last start when 15 lengths away in tenth over 1400m at this track. Nicely placed to take this out. MAY BLOSSOM (6) was beaten 6 lengths into seventh in a 1400m contest at this track last time out. Finds a nice race and can make amends.

At the latest run settled back and ran on when 6th of 10 at this track on January 25 over 1400m, 6 len behind Sand Falcon carrying 56kg at $52.50. The race before that 4th of 12 at this track on January 5 over 1400m, 7 len behind Nishino Endeavor carrying 56kg at $123.60. Likely to find them too smart.

Last start 7th of 11 at this track on January 25 over 1400m, 10 len behind Tipsy World with 54kg at $139.50. The start before that eased back early on 9th of 12 at this track on January 11 over 1300m, 11 len behind T O Edison carrying 54kg at $241.80. Doesn't look good enough to threaten the top few.

Last start sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 12 at this track on January 25 over 1300m, 4.5 len behind Fer A Cheval carrying 54kg at $114. Before that 9th of 12 at this track on January 5 over 1400m, 10 len behind Nishino Endeavor with 54kg at $68.90. Might just find this lot a bit smart.
