GOING:

Race 1 1200m

Track: AW     True  

Little in the way of tactical speed so a moderate tempo is likely. FERVOR RUSH (8) came home strongly last start to finish second, beaten one length, over 1200m at this track. Has a win and 11 minor placings from 16 starts at this track and distance. Will be hard to stop. ENCHANT (7) is coming off a last-start fifth, beaten 7 lengths, over 1500m at Urawa. Hard to go past. CONGRAZIA (3) finished seventh over 1200m at this track at her most recent appearance on December 17. Definite top-three chance. RYUNO JACK (4) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing fourth at this track over 1200m. Placed to advantage so expect a bold run.
