    Race Analysis

    WARM RECEPTION (2) is a four-start maiden who was close to a win before a 11 weeks break, finishing off with a minor placing at this track (Turf). Has the benefit of a low draw. Looks the one to beat. SYNTAX (1) settled towards the back last start on debut then pushed forward and boxed on well to finish second over 5½f at Del Mar (Dirt). Has the inside gate which is a big tick and will pay to follow. SUNTORY TIME (5) resumes from a lay-off of nine months. Could only manage to finish fourth at the latest run over 1m1f at this track (Turf). Rates highly and is a chance to break through. FRENCH MOONLIGHT (8) finished fourth at this track and distance at her last appearance 11 weeks ago. Definite top-three chance.
