GOING:

Race 4 1400m

Track:      

Snow Train has the pace to lead in what is likely to be a moderate tempo. ENISHARU (9) was well found in the betting last time out but could only manage to finish eighth over 1400m at this track in a disappointing performance. Likely improver with strong prospects. UNCLE TEIO (6) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1400m at this track, beaten 3 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Likely improver with strong prospects. HIMEKAMINO TENGU (7) was always well back over this course and distance last time and never threatened in the straight. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. SNOW TRAIN (10) showed good speed here last time over 1500m until tiring late and finishing eighth, beaten 13 lengths. Not to be underestimated.
