GOING:

Race 2 1300m

Track:      

Little early speed leaves it open for Lace Lavender to be prominent. FOR YOU RUN RUN (7) was fifth at her latest appearance over 1300m at this track. Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. FIVE SENSE (3) is returning from a spell of seven months. Finished eighth at Kokura over 1800m at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Yukichi Sugawara and capable of playing a major role. AZUL SPHERE (5) is yet to find the frame in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when sixth over 1300m at this track. Will strip fitter and can turn things around. LACE LAVENDER (1) is a four-start maiden who was close to a win before a eight months break, finishing off with a minor placing at Morioka. Re-unites with Makoto Otsubo. Has ability and must be included in calculations.
