GOING:

Race 11 1400m

Track:      

Genuine pace with Bow Chaser taking up the running ahead of Bellagio Hope and Anthracite. ANTHRACITE (2) saluted when resuming last start at this track over this distance. Has a very good record over today's journey with 10 wins from 20 starts. Should park just off the speed. Expecting a bold showing. BOW CHASER (3) is close to breaking through after finishing third last start over 1400m at this track when he was prominent throughout. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. VINA HOI AN (8) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fourth here. Likely improver with strong prospects. BELLAGIO HOPE (4) was in the money two starts back at Himeji but was unable to repeat the effort last time when eighth. Finds a nice race and can make amends.
