GOING:

Race 1 1500m

Track:      

Miyaji Brillant and Lord Stout can take forward positions at a moderate tempo. MIYAJI BRILLANT (11) made progress last time out, finishing third at the end of 1500m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. A SHIN ZODIAC (8) improved last start but found one better over 1500m at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths. Heading in the right direction and looks hard to beat. PECHE MELBA (6) is yet to break through in four runs. Finished 13th at her last appearance over 2000m at Niigata on August 18. Expected to feature in the finish this time in easier. THOMAS FLARE (10) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 2600m at Sapporo. Finds a suitable race and can play a big role.
