GOING:

Race 10 2000m

Track:      

Solid tempo with Fuku Pygmalion, Red Bronx and Feedback the ones to roll forward. FUKU PYGMALION (5) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish second over 2000m at Himeji. Finds a suitable race and can run another big race. NIHONPIRO TIES (1) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing second last time when he was in the firing line all the way over 2100m at this track. Finds a tougher race but he has the ability to test this field. KEY JUPITER (8) worked home well to grab third at long odds at his latest appearance at this track over 1700m. Shapes as one to consider. ERNANI (3) turned in a much better effort last time out to score by a neck over 2100m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run.
