GOING:

Race 1 1400m

Track:      

In a race devoid of pace Italic Type will be prominent. KURINO BIKKURIBAGO (1) impressed last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished third over 1400m at this track. Looks well placed so expecting to be in the finish. CHO KANSEI (5) finished 2.7L away in fifth over 1400m at this track three weeks ago. Finds a nice race and can play a significant role. ITALIC TYPE (3) finished out of the money in sixth over 1400m at this track two weeks ago. Finds a nice race to make amends. KAYAKO (7) doesn't win out of turn but was okay here last start when finishing fifth after she was well back on straightening. Good enough on her day. Can give this a shake on best form.
