GOING:

Race 10 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with Peisha Curren leading the way. VIVIEN EIGHT (5) is having her first run since October 22. Goes very well when fresh with two wins from four starts, the latest over 1200m at Monbetsu at the start of last prep. Best fresh figures put her right in this. MARBLE MACARON (7) drifted well back before winding up strongly to score an effortless 2 lengths win over 1600m at Ohi last time out. Worth following up. INADAHIME (6) is back after a break of 11 weeks. Looking to emulate her win at this track when returning from a spell last prep. Has a strong first-up record, scoring on two occasions from three runs. Sure to make her presence felt. FREEDOM (4) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 900m at Kawasaki, beaten 4 lengths. Fitter and sure to run well.
