Race 10 2000m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
A genuine pace is expected with Champagne Fight, Kentucky Sky and Royal Zap rolling along early. ASIA MISSION (6) turned in a nice run last time to finish second over 1600m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. CHAMPAGNE FIGHT (5) finished fourth last start over this distance at Urawa, beaten 5.5 lengths. Form here strong boasting six wins from 11 starts and is one of the major players. ROYAL ZAP (7) scored two runs back then was popular with punters last time but could only manage to finish fifth over the same trip at Urawa. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. KENTUCKY SKY (8) never really threatened when resuming last time out, finishing midfield and beaten 7 lengths over 2000m at this circuit. Should settle just off the speed despite the draw and is sure to be thereabouts.
