GOING:

Race 9 1300m

Track:      

The speedy Koei Brave should find the front with Peisha World and Abundance on his heels. PEISHA WORLD (10) started at $2.60 last time but could only manage fourth at this track over 1400m. Ryotaro Oka who has six wins when partnering stays on and can feature. CLEAN SLATE (9) returned from a spell two weeks ago when he was 11th over 1400m at this track. Fitter and sure to run well. MIZUWARIO KUDASAI (2) did little and finished sixth over 1400m at this track last start. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. DANON MAGIC (5) had been rock-solid with two placings in a row before finishing ninth over 1800m at this track last start. Can improve here.

Last start couldn't go on with it; 5th of 10 at this track on April 28 over 1400m, 6 len behind Satono Alex carrying 56kg at $16.80. The race before that faded in the straight 5th of 9 at this track on April 13 over 1400m, 5 len behind Three Grand carrying 56kg at $27.40. The inside gate brings him right into contention.
