Race 10 1300m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
A solid tempo anticipated with Arial Black and Immortal Wind ahead of Crack Of Dawn and B B Basilis. ARIAL BLACK (1) ran another strong race last time out, finishing second and beaten only 2 lengths over 1400m at this track to add to a series of top-four finishes. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. IMMORTAL WIND (8) ran below par last time but was strong prior, finishing a close second two back to follow a string of wins. Can bounce back. DEEP GILDONG (6) got well back in a tougher race at this track last time and never threatened but scored here prior. Takuya Okamura gets the best out of this seven-year-old entire. Better placed so can play a pivotal role. CRACK OF DAWN (10) may be capable of a better result in this line-up.
