Saga Race 2 - Race 2 - 1400
MEINER DANK (4) doesn't win out of turn but ran a strong race last time when beaten half a length into second over 1400m at this track. Ren Hasegawa who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Bold showing expected. A SHIN L'ALA (1) led throughout last start to score an effortless 4 lengths win over 1300m at this track. Has a win and five minor placings at this journey from eight starts and should be in the finish. UNE BRISE (10) scored at this track last time out with 3 lengths in reserve at the end of 1300m. Has a good record at this course and distance, including a win and two placings. Will be handy despite the tricky draw. One to consider. YUTO THE EAST (9) lifted strongly to get the prize by a nose three runs back at this track before filling a minor placing at his last two starts. Should park just off the speed. In the mix.

Recent form sound. Most recently raced on the pace when 3rd of 10 at this track on February 28 over 1400m, 4.5 len behind Major Tesoro with 56kg at $4.90. Before that held ground to the line 2nd of 12 at this track on February 15 over 1400m, nose behind Delling City with 56kg at $3. Rates highly and is among the main hopes.

Recent form sound. Comes here off a 31-day let-up. Most recently tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 3 len at this track February 25 over 1300m defeating Pieno D'amore with 54kg at $3.80. The run before that 4th of 10 at this track on February 8 over 900m, 4.5 len behind Remigino Tesoro carrying 54kg at $3.80. Big chance to make it back-to-back successes.
