GOING:

Race 1 1400m

Track:      

Taiko Faith, Meisho Satoyuki and Tanomude Homma can set a genuine tempo. MEISHO SATOYUKI (10) finished second over 1400m at this track at his most recent appearance on October 10. Has found a suitable race and can feature. AMMODO (11) resumes in a similar race to his only run last prep back on October 30 when fourth. Could be hard to stop. KINSHO WORLD (5) was prominent at the turn and progressed nicely last start to finish a close third over 1400m at Himeji. Looks well placed so expect another big run. LOVELY TEN (9) missed the frame last start over 1400m at Himeji, finishing ninth. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
