Race 10 1500m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Abundant early pace from Dene, Nightfall Sun and Esta Bonito vying for the lead with Der Bose Blick on their backs. ESTA BONITO (12) scored last start at this track over this distance. Has found the frame in all six starts at this journey, including four wins. Masaaki Ohata who has four wins when partnering stays on. Should be in the finish again. NIGHTFALL SUN (10) was safely held when fourth last time out over 1500m here after a win at this track at the previous outing. Expect a better run this time. KAFUJI LIBRA (5) proved too strong two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when sixth over 1500m at this track. In the mix. DENE (6) is returning from a spell of three-and-a-half months. Finished tenth at Urawa over 2000m at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Takao Tsukada and should be primed for this.
