GOING: G

YOKOTSUDAKE TOKUBETSU 2600m

Track: MUDDY      

Hiruno De Plaats to roll forward and dictate terms. VALENTINE GIRL (10) has not appeared since she finished third over 2400m at Tokyo on May 3. Rates highly and is likely to be ready to run well. HEILAND (2) finished ninth over 2600m at Fukushima at his most recent appearance on April 20. Strong fresh performer who is sure to make his presence felt. CARRY HAPPINESS (7) finished 6 lengths away in fifth last time out over 2400m at Kyoto when first up from a spell. Tackles a longer journey this time. Strong top-three chance. CITE FLORALE (9) is back from a break of five months. Raced below par at his only appearance last prep when eighth over 2400m at Tokyo. Among the better hopes if right.
