GOING: G

Open Class Race 3300m

Track:      

THUNDER ALERT (4) opened the campaign with a respectable second in a maiden steeplechase (2890m) at Niigata then last start won in a maiden steeplechase (2970m) at Hanshin by 3 lengths. Likely to figure prominently again. CONTAINER WORLD (6) returns from a 69-day spell. Concluded the last campaign finishing fifth in a steeplechase (3170m) at Kyoto, beaten 15 lengths. Already a winner over the obstacles. Sure to be primed and expected to be hard to beat. GEOFRONT (3) returns from a 63-day spell. Made just the one appearance when last in work and was successful in a maiden steeplechase (3000m) at Tokyo, scoring by a nose. Genuine contender in this line-up. GOLD BREEZE (8) started at big odds but returned from a spell on June 21 with a sound third in a steeplechase (3110m) at Hanshin, beaten 12 lengths. Decent chance in this line-up.
