GOING:

Race 3 800m

Track: AW      

Solid early pace with Memorial Queen showing out while Mitono Courir will work across from an outside gate. MEMORIAL QUEEN (5) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 800m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths. Fitter so anticipating a better run this time. DAIEI BILBERRY (6) is a 42-start maiden who could only manage to finish fourth at her latest appearance over 800m at this track. Well placed on this occasion and gets her chance to break the ice. ALEUMDAUN (3) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 6 lengths when ninth in a 800m contest at this track three weeks ago. Finds a nice race and can figure in the finish. GOLD BOARD (10) was beaten 17 lengths into 11th over 1400m at Kawasaki at her latest appearance. No surprise to see her in contention.
