GOING:

Race 6 1400m

Track:      

Teleos Noa is the probable leader in the small field. TELEOS NOA (1) impressed last time when she scored by a neck over this journey at Himeji on March 7. Will appreciate the big weight drop so she is expected to measure up again. NARITA ICHIMONJI (2) recorded a strong maiden win last time. Shaping up nicely and he is right in the mix again. MEME NISHIKORI (3) improved sharply on his fourth two starts back at Himeji with success at Himeji three weeks ago. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he can go back-to-back. CHERRY ROMANCE (5) is close to breaking through, last start finishing just a head away in second. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time.
