GOING:

Race 10 1400m

Track:      

Plenty of pace with Tomoe Jo and Danse Du Vent leading from Highest Rank. DANSE DU VENT (9) is in top form including an effortless 30 lengths win over 1400m at this track last time. Hard to knock and should go well again. MARUKA VENTO (1) turned in a fine effort to win by 3 lengths at this track and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Meeting a deeper field this time but he can win again. TOMOE JO (2) was a dominant winner last time over 1400m at this track, getting home by 2 lengths. Is going okay this campaign, recording two wins and two minor placings from seven starts. Expected to be competitive. CROSS RATE (6) raced just off the lead before letting down nicely and scoring a 1.5 lengths win over this journey at this track last time. Solid top-three chance.
