GOING: G

Allowance Race 1600m

Track: FIRM      

Pace genuine with Requin and Full Metal Body pressing hard closely followed by Wonder Kisara and Tagano Shansu. SEVEN SUMMIT (3) met with solid support when resuming last start over 1600m at this track and finished third, beaten 4.5 lengths. Strips fitter and will enjoy a lovely run from an inside gate. Worth following. SWEEP AWARDS (9) was comfortably accounted for when seventh last start over 1600m at Hanshin, beaten 4 lengths. That followed a good first-up win at the same circuit. Won't find this as tough so he is a major player. TAGANO SHANSU (7) started favourite when resuming but found one better over 1400m at Hanshin. Looks well placed stepping out in trip. Can figure in the finish. I'LL SHINE (5) improved sharply last time out to score by a neck over 1600m at Chukyo when fresh from an eight-week let-up. Comes here off the same break and can feature prominently.
