GOING: G

Maiden Race 1400m

Track: FIRM      

Keen speed battle, with Ryusei Kotei, Hot To Trot and Meiner Jugend prominent. ECOLE NAVALE (3) ran well on debut last start to finish second over 1400m at Tokyo in a tougher race. Nicely drawn so a big run is anticipated. TAISEI FRESA (5) was well in commission last start over 1200m at Fukushima when second, beaten 2 lengths. Can atone. MEINER JUGEND (7) was well in the market on debut last time out and ran well but found one better over 1200m at Fukushima. Expected to feature with improvement to come. KITTEN'S SILVER (17) raced once in the maiden preparation when ninth at Tokyo over 1400m back on June 8. Expected to be right there at the business end.
