GOING:

Race 1 1300m

Track:      

Good pressure from the outset with Next To You, Kadoban Dasshutsu and Bouvardia Rose taking up the running over Shodan Begin and Melody Seira. BOUVARDIA ROSE (2) is closing in on a win, last time out finishing third over 1000m at Monbetsu when just 1.75 lengths from the winner. Extra trip a plus and is worth including. NEXT TO YOU (3) went forward last start over 1000m at Monbetsu and held on well for third, beaten a neck. Taking on a better field but she is up to the task. KADOBAN DASSHUTSU (8) is a six-start maiden who finished fifth at his most recent outing over 1300m at this track. Among the chances in what looks a nice race for him. TECHNO STRAWBERRY (5) missed the placings two runs back then did well last start but found a couple better over 1300m at this track, beaten only 0.6 lengths. This looks a good race for her so another forward showing looks likely.
