GOING:

Race 10 2000m

Track:      

Expecting a solid tempo set up by Moon Halo crossing from the outside stall. MOON HALO (12) did a great job to score by half a length over this course and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Taking on a better line-up this time but he is up to it. DOLCIARIA (1) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 2000m at Urawa after being prominent at the turn. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. DIRT RAISING (3) built on a nice third two starts back at this track with success over 2000m at Urawa three weeks ago, getting home by a neck. This looks a sterner test than last time but on current form he is good enough to take this out. GLORY AN'S TIME (6) has claims off a win at this track and trip three back.
