GOING: S

Race 1 1600m

Track: SOFT     True  

No noted leader but Yamato Hope Ship, Miwa Tetsu Nigo and Gamble Lady will be prominent. YAMATO HOPE SHIP (3) is close to breaking through after three consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1600m at this track. Well placed this line-up and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. GOLD AVANTI (6) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.75 lengths from the winner in second over 1600m at this track. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. MIWA TETSU NIGO (8) was popular in betting last time out but disappointed. Solid top-three chance on his best figures. ALPHA SCORPIUS (2) has not won for a long while. Last raced on June 4 when finishing fifth at this track over 1600m. Best figures measure up nicely. Can do a lot better.
