GOING:

Race 10 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo from Daishin Ares leading Haruhiko. DAISHIN ARES (1) led to the turn and fought on to finish second over 1400m at this track at his latest appearance. Has a solid record here over this journey and is a leading contender. YOSHINO TARUMAE (7) made progress last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1400m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. BLITZEN CITY (6) is a distance specialist who finished out of the money when fresh from a spell two starts back then was beaten 2.75 lengths when sixth in a 1400m contest at this track four weeks ago. Nicely placed to get the prize. MOON GARDEN (5) turned in an encouraging run at this course and distance last time, winding up strongly to finish fourth, beaten 4.5 lengths. Well placed and is among the chances.
