GOING:

Race 1 1400m

Track:      

A keen early contest with Mart Dragon and A Shin Go On leading from Appare. A SHIN GO ON (7) is a two-start maiden who looks close to a win after placing at both runs, the latest when second over 1400m at this track. Racing well & cannot be underestimated. DERMA ECHIDNA (6) did her best work late last time over 1400m at this track, finishing fourth. Nicely placed and is among the leading chances. MART DRAGON (4) was last at the races when he finished eighth over 1400m at Himeji on January 23. One to consider in this suitable assignment. FU LAILE (3) was sixth in a 1400m contest at this track at his latest appearance. Well placed and worth consideration.
