GOING:

Race 10 1580m

Track:      

Small field but a good tempo is expected with Danse Du Vent, Hawaiian Icon and Drum Lime pressing on. DRUM LIME (2) was well in commission last start over 1600m at this track when second. Tsutsui Yusuke who has eight wins when partnering stays on. Expecting a bold showing. DANSE DU VENT (3) was prominent from the outset and fought on for second last start over 1400m at this track, making it three minor placings in a row. Has a high cruising speed. Sure to run well. MARUYO FURSA (5) improved last time out to score by 3 lengths as public elect over 1400m at this track. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she can go back-to-back. HAWAIIAN ICON (6) was in the firing line on the corner and finished second last start over 1580m here. Has started three times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Anticipating a big run again.
