GOING:

Race 1 1400m

Track:      

Nerukowa Sodatsu and Luminous Ruby to take up the running at a strong tempo. NERUKOWA SODATSU (9) is a two-start maiden who looks close to a win after placing at both runs, the latest when second over 920m at this track. Has the early speed to cross from out wide. Best figures should see her run well. LUMINOUS RUBY (6) was well fancied on debut last start and was not far off the mark, finishing second over 920m at this track. Can get off the mark this time. LOVE LIVE (3) finished sixth last time out over 920m at this track four weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Leading hope. SHIRAGAZOME (10) missed the frame last start over 920m at this track when ninth. Better than recent efforts suggest and worth consideration here.
