GOING:

Race 1 1300m

Track:      

Genuine tempo from Meijo Solid leading Augenblick. SUGINO MAJESTY (3) bounced straight to the front from the rails draw last start and led for home before finishing second over 1400m at this track. Well-placed and will take catching. CAPO DI TUTTI CAPI (1) tasted defeat last start when fourth over 1400m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths. Placed to advantage and can make his presence felt. LOVE BEACH (4) stuck on well last start to finish second over 1400m at this track after showing good early speed. Expect another big run. AUGENBLICK (2) showed good speed and fought on for third over 1400m at this track last time. Can sneak into the finish again.
