GOING:

Race 5 1000m

Track:      

Yamanin Al Mare to take charge ahead of Veronica Brain at a solid tempo. YAMANIN AL MARE (5) pushed forward last time and boxed on well to finish second over 1400m at Mizusawa. Drops in distance and can go one better here. TOSEN GIN LIME (3) settled well back from a wide draw last time then wound up strongly to finish fourth over 1400m at Mizusawa. Should be doing best work late again and is in the mix. VERONICA BRAIN (7) finished out of the money when fifth in a 850m contest at Mizusawa two weeks ago. Finds a nice race and can play a significant role. WIN RASANZ (4) gave away a considerable start over 850m at Mizusawa last time before hitting the line well to finish fourth. One to watch for in the closing stages.
