GOING:

Race 1 1400m

Track:      

Moderate tempo with Silver Craft leading the way. SILVER CRAFT (6) went forward last start over 1300m at this track and held on well for second. Likely improver with strong prospects. COOLEST (8) was popular in betting last time out but disappointed in finishing sixth over 1400m at this track. This looks a nice race so expect him to be right in the finish. RYUNO PETIT (11) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1300m at this track. Will need a good ride from Toru Takeyoshi off the awkward draw. Has her share of talent and finds a suitable race. ADELAIDE (5) was fourth in a 1300m contest at this track at her latest appearance. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time.
