GOING:

Race 1 1300m

Track:      

Star Of Tower, Daimei Sanshi and Wonderful Ring to match motors but there will be other pressure. DAIMEI SANSHI (4) is a two-start maiden who looks close to a win after placing at both runs, the latest when second over 1300m at this track. Has a high cruising speed. Will prove tough to beat. WONDERFUL RING (7) ran well on debut last start to finish second over 900m at this track in a tougher race. Likely improver so a big run is anticipated. STAR OF CHARGE (6) was a determined maiden winner last time out, scoring by half a length over 1300m at this track. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Looks well placed and he cannot be discounted. SHINANO ELEGANCE (2) has been racing in good style including a last start third over 1300m at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths. Likely to be about the mark again.
