GOING:

Race 1 1300m

Track:      

With little in the way of early speed Peace Nail may well find the front. PEACE NAIL (2) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.5 lengths from the winner in second over 1400m at this track. Could be hard to beat in this suitable race. PUGNA FATA (1) is a five-start maiden who finished fifth at her most recent outing over 1400m at this track. Finds a suitable assignment this time and is a great chance to break through. MEGA CHROME (6) has been out of the frame at his last couple of runs, last time finishing back in 13th over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt. Better placed here in easier and can bounce back to form. TEN THOROUGH (3) produced another moderate effort last start when eighth over 1300m at this track. Well placed to make amends.
