GOING: S

Race 1 1600m

Track: SOFT      

Strong pace with Philippine and Beiden Flash driving across from their wide draws. BEIDEN FLASH (10) is a promising galloper who won at his last run before a break five months ago over 1400m at this track. Has never missed the frame when fresh from a spell in two starts. Tsubasa Sasagawa has been the pilot at his last two wins. Expecting a bold showing. PHILIPPINE (12) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second when resuming last time out over 1600m at this track. Can cross from an awkward gate. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. I AM IBUSHIGIN (13) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1600m at this track, beaten 7 lengths into fourth. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. PAIN AU CHOCOLAT (7) scored two back at this track but was below her best last time when eighth over 1600m at this track. Nicely placed to bounce back.
