Saga Race 7

1400

Stake: $8,994

IHOJIN (9) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 6 lengths away in second over 1400m at this track. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. ANGEL STAR (2) is coming off a last-start fourth, beaten 8 lengths, over 1400m at this track. Credentials hard to fault. BLACK DESIRE (10) finished seventh two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1400m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. MAGGIE'S MISSION (8) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1400m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run.
