GOING: G

Maiden Race 1400m

Track: STANDARD      

Genuine tempo from Sekkachi Dragon leading Mamma Mia. MAMMA MIA (11) is a three-start maiden who finished fifth at his most recent outing over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt. This offers him a great chance of breaking through. HIKARU ELIZABETH (4) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt, beaten 11 lengths into eighth. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. KLART (1) is back after a break of 12 weeks. At the last run before the layoff he finished ninth over 1800m at Tokyo. Leading player on best figures - bold showing expected. MOTH ORCHID (9) returns after 11 weeks in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a sixth over 1400m at this track. Has ability and must be included in calculations.
