GOING:

Race 10 1400m

Track:      

Shinto Hanano Boss, Miss Margaux and Asa to take up the running at a decent tempo. SHINTO HANANO BOSS (3) raced on the pace last start and lifted strongly to hold third over today's journey at Urawa. Ideally placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. M T WISER (10) is a consistent performer with three minor placings from four starts this campaign. Continued the trend last start when runner-up over 1200m at Funabashi after he was handy all the way. Has his share of talent and finds a suitable race. TAISEI ARMET (2) improved last start to finish third over 1400m at this track. Well placed and can find winning ways. ASTEROPE (5) had been in sound form but last start she was safely held when sixth over 1200m at Funabashi. Naoki Machida has a solid record aboard this three-year-old filly so she can improve sharply.
