GOING:

Race 1 1400m

Track:      

Expecting Major Rush to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. BLAZE BOY (2) made progress last start to finish second over 1400m at this track after being in the firing line on the bend. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. MAJOR RUSH (1) was well in the market but disappointed backers last time when 6 lengths from the winner in fifth over 1400m at this track. Hasn't broken through over this course and distance but has managed three minor placings. Expected to go very well. CONVEX (7) showed good early speed last start over today's journey at this track before finishing second, beaten one length. Hard to beat in this suitable race. COPANO YMIR (6) was safely held when resuming last start over 1400m at this track, finishing eighth and beaten 45 lengths. Reunites with Maki Mukoyama who has two wins when on board. In the mix with race fitness now on side.
