GOING:

Race 10 1300m

Track: HEAVY      

Moderate tempo with Satono Takeru leading the way. AN PATO (3) scored last time over 1750m at this track, making it five victories from seven appearances this time in. Has a superb record at the course, unbeaten in five starts. Sure to go well. MY BOO (11) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was always well out of his ground over 1400m at this track, beaten 6 lengths into sixth. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. RAFFAELE (9) finished seventh last start, beaten 7 lengths, over 1400m at this track. Is yet to miss the frame from three starts at this distance, including two wins. Backmarker who gets home hard. Watch for a big run. SATONO TAKERU (7) was below his best last time when sixth over 1400m at this track, beaten 12 lengths. Best figures measure up nicely. Solid top-three prospects.
