GOING:

Race 10 1400m Track:
No place for the faint-hearted with Eifer Daio and Icarus getting along early. THALJ TAJ (3) confidence is high after winning most recently as favourite on May 23 at this track over 1400m. Will attempt to add to his impressive record at this track and distance. Rates highly and will prove tough to beat here as always. NAMURA MICHELLE (2) has put together a couple of wins at this track, the latest on June 4 over 1400m when she got home by 1.5 lengths. Winning rider Tatsuya Watanabe retains the mount. Meets some better types this time but she has the ability to test this field. ICARUS (8) did a great job to score by 5 lengths over today's course and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Taking on a better line-up this time but he can win again. EIFER DAIO (6) didn't do a bad job when second last start over 1400m here after a win at this track the start prior. Best figures measure up and expect a bold run.
