GOING:

Race 1 1200m

Track:      

Expecting Ivy Blizzard to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. IVY BLIZZARD (13) did a fair job on debut last time out, finishing 1.3 lengths from the winner in second over 1200m at this track. Has upside and can open his account. AIR DROP (2) is a four-year-old entire by California Chrome out of Silver Compass set to debut for the Kazuo Watanabe stable. Should acquit himself well. Keep an eye out for any positive market movement. DOTCHI NANDAI (4) is a three-start maiden who could only manage to finish fifth at his latest appearance over 1200m at this track. Suited in this line up and is among the better hopes. REGISTA (6) didn't do a lot on debut two weeks ago, finishing 10 lengths from the winner in fourth over 1200m at this track. Will take a lot from that experience. Must be respected.
