Saga Race 8 - Race 8 - 1400
A SHIN L'ALA (9) turned in a fine effort to score by 2.5 lengths at this track and distance last time out to continue her outstanding recent form. Stepping up a level this time but on her best form she is good enough to cope. TIPSY WORLD (1) did a great job to score by 0.8 lengths over this course and distance last start in a far better run. Must raise the bar but she has the ability to test this field. RUMILLION (3) turned in a modest performance when second last time out over 1300m at this track, beaten 6 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Has raced four times here and has never missed the frame. Must raise the bar but another win is not out of the question. RINEN DRIVE (2) was in the money two starts back at this track but was unable to repeat the effort last time when seventh, beaten 7 lengths, at this track over 1300m. Has his share of talent and can do a lot better.
