GOING:

Race 10 1870m

Track:      

Mira Monte, Yoshino Tarumae and Bellagio Haruka will not hold back as they vie for the lead from Sunny Weather and Ziggurat. GRAND FOREST (5) racing well. Finished second last start over 1400m following a win at this track the start prior. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is right in contention. YOSHINO TARUMAE (4) could only manage fifth last start over 1400m at this track. Form here strong boasting six wins from 12 starts. Well placed and should be in the finish. JOSHO TYPE (9) started at $6.80 last time and ran below expectations, finishing sixth at this track over 1870m. Kenta Sugiura gets the best out of this three-year-old filly. Expect a big run this time. ZIGGURAT (2) is closing in on a win after two consecutive placings, the latest a second over 1700m at this track. Form this track is hard to knock and cannot be underestimated.
