GOING: S

Race 10 1200m

Track: SOFT      

Genuine pace with Fat Dragon taking up the running ahead of Insider and Rocket Home Run. ROCKET HOME RUN (9) scored at this track when resuming and has run well at both starts since, the latest a second over 1200m at this track. Will be cherry ripe and makes plenty of appeal. SHADOW DUCHESS (6) missed the frame last start over 1200m at this track when fifth. Has been slowly progressing since dropping back from JRA level and can break through. FAT DRAGON (10) showed good early muster and fought on well to finish third last start over 1200m at this track. Can cross from an awkward gate and anticipating another good run. JONAGOLD (3) was comfortably accounted for when eighth last time out over 1200m here after a win at this track at the previous outing. In contention this time from the good draw.
