GOING:

Race 8 1000m

Track:      

Pace a scorcher, headed by D S Enthu, Wangbi and Koryu Kagemitsu, closely followed by Quattro Sauvage and Rappa Rapper. D S ENTHU (10) returns from the paddock after closing last prep with two consecutive wins, the most recent over 1000m at this track. Mitsuyuki Miyazaki has been the pilot at his last two wins. Looks set for a bright return. QUATTRO SAUVAGE (7) is a multiple-winner who is yet to miss the frame in four starts. Last appeared when he scored over 1000m at this track on November 8. Should camp just off the leaders. Expected to be in the finish. TAIKI BANDIERA (9) has been safely held at his last few runs, the latest a disappointing tenth over 1200m at this track. Rates well on best figures and can do much better. REIWA HOKUTO (3) finished fifth over 1000m at this track at her most recent appearance on November 1. Can feature here.
