GOING:

Race 10 1300m

Track:      

Looks a keen contest with Kung Fu Dance and Kawakita Max pressing for the lead with Derma Europa and Wakino Luce close at hand. CANON WOOD TAIL (1) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 4 lengths into sixth. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. BEACH SANDAL (3) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when she was never in contention over 1400m at this track, beaten 4 lengths into fifth. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. DERMA EUROPA (2) missed the frame last time when ninth at this track. Prior to that had been in the money on two consecutive occasions. Rates highly and is worth another try. UTAMARO (4) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing sixth at this track over 1400m. Placed to advantage so expect a better run this time.
