GOING:

Race 1 1400m

Track:      

Expecting Schalttag to lead Sunny Star at just a moderate tempo. SCHALTTAG (2) failed to feature last start, finishing fifth over 1400m at Himeji. Should park just off the speed and can give a great sight. KINSHO WORLD (6) finished out of the money when sixth in a 1400m contest at this track two weeks ago. Going up a level this time but he cannot be taken lightly. CHIME CROWN (10) last start finished fifth over 1400m at this track. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is one of the key runners. T O MONT BLANC (1) last start finished fifth at this track over 1400m. Placed to advantage and expect a better run.
