GOING:

Race 1 1500m

Track:      

Expecting Bonjour Ca Va to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. SALLY (8) has been out of the frame at her last couple of runs, last time finishing 17 lengths away in 14th over 2000m. Likely to feature back at this level. MORI INVICTUS (7) was in a rearwards position on the turn last time out before finishing 18 lengths from the winner in 16th over 2400m at Tokyo. This offers him a great chance of breaking through. BONJOUR CA VA (2) is returning from a spell of four months. Finished eighth at Tokyo Dirt over 1400m at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Yukio Abe. Solid top-three hope. CURREN SHOW (4) gave away a big start at the top of the straight last start and finished 26 lengths from the winner in 15th over 1700m at Kokura Dirt. Among the chances in what looks a nice race for him.
