GOING:

Race 1 1200m

Track: AW     True  

A solid tempo is anticipated with Nobishiro and Linda Pokke kicking up to hold out the next wave. LINDA POKKE (9) is in winning form after scoring as favourite last time out by 2.5 lengths over 1200m at this track. Has four wins here. Takayuki Yano who has four wins when partnering stays on. Should be in the finish. BIG PHU KAO (6) has been in the money at both starts this time in work, the latest a second over 1400m at this track. Unbeaten in two starts at the third run in so he is among the winning hopes. GYRO (1) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1200m at this track, beaten 12 lengths. Fitter and sure to run well. NOBISHIRO (4) was beaten 8 lengths into sixth over 1200m at this track last time out. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
