GOING:

Race 5 1500m

Track:      

Strong tempo with Realiser, Steiner and Je Reve leading the way. REALISER (11) proved too strong two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when fourth over 1500m at this track. Makoto Okabe is a key engagement. Finds the right race this time and can rediscover winning form. AUGURI (8) got a long way back last start when 11th over 1500m at this track. Best figures measure up nicely and can run well here. STEINER (6) won his maiden four starts back and is nearing another victory with placings at his last two runs, most recently when second over 920m at this track. Should be involved in the finish. JE REVE (10) finished eighth over 1500m at this track last time out following a determined win two runs back. In the mix here.
