Himeji Race 8 - Race 8 - 1400

FAIRY BLUE (3) has registered two minor placings from three runs this campaign. Turned in another good performance at her most recent run when second over 1400m at this track after she was handy all the way. Must be included on the strength of that form. MOKARA ACE (4) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race last time out, finishing third and beaten only 1.3 lengths over 1400m at this track after being prominent at the turn. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish. AIYANA (6) finished out of the money when fresh from a spell two starts back then was beaten 12 lengths when sixth over 1400m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. JUNE STATUS (5) has not won for a long while. Last raced on February 11 when beaten 8 lengths into eighth at this track over 1500m. Placed to advantage and can feature in the finish.

Recent form sound. Most recently sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 7 at this track on February 3 over 1400m, 1.0 len behind Love Me Mary carrying 55kg at $1.70. The start before that gave a sight but was run down late 3rd of 10 at this track on January 20 over 1400m, 0.5 len behind Wonder Bling with 55kg at $35.80. Good effort last start and can build on that performance.
