Race 1 1500m
NIGHT AWAY (6) ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1400m at this track after being in the firing line on the bend. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. YUINO KOKYU (8) was out of the placings in tougher company two runs back then appreciated the drop in grade and saluted last time over 1400m at this track, leading throughout. Should measure up again. BE MYSELF (2) was well fancied when resuming last start and proved too strong, scoring by 2 lengths over 1400m at this track.
