Kawasaki Race 6

1500

Prize Money: $67,478

CLEVER PINE (3) led all the way to score as favourite on debut over 1400m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Has plenty of upside and can win again. DRAGON LIGHT (5) recorded a strong maiden win over 1400m at this track last time, getting there by 3 lengths. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and she is a solid top-three hope. GINGER HOPE (8) went forward and proved too strong last time, scoring with 1.5 lengths to spare over 1400m at this track. Sure to be competitive. EWALD (4) was prominent at the turn and finished second last time over 1500m at this track, beaten a neck. Will trim down following recent racing. In the right race and is one of the better hopes.

Having third race start. When well in the market at debut, 2nd in a small field at this track on July 9 over 1400m, 5 len behind Sorani Negaio with 54kg at $2.70. Second-up gave a sight but was run down late 2nd of 7 at this track on July 29 over 1500m, neck behind Black Lizard carrying 54kg at $1.60. This race is well within his grasp.
