GOING:

Race 1 1230m

Track:      

Cherry Rise is the likely leader at a strong tempo. MEISHO MATABEE (1) showed good pace and went on to score by 3 lengths last time out over 1400m at this track. Live on a hat-trick and is well placed to measure up again. MONONOFUNO MICHI (7) is surely due a win after a string of minor placings, the latest when third over 1230m at this track. Suited for this race, can salute the judge. WAKINO GLASS (11) did a great job to score by 2 lengths over today's course and distance last start in a much improved run. A repeat of the latest can see her take a hand in the finish. ALLENATORE (4) is building towards her maiden success, the latest effort a solid second over 1230m at this track. Suitably placed and anticipating another big run.
