GOING:

Race 10 2100m

Track:      

Aoi Mimosa and Tablao to battle for the leading role. TABLAO (3) went forward last start and proved too strong, getting home by 5 lengths over 1400m at this track. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he cannot be underestimated. RYUNO BREAK (11) is racing well, scoring two back at this track before finishing 2.5 lengths from the winner in second last time over 1700m at this track. Has a strong record here, including five wins. Likely to feature. NAMIDANO KISS (8) was well in commission last start over 2000m at this track when third, beaten 2.5 lengths. Has eight wins from 15 starts at this circuit. One of the main contenders. KURFURST (10) was in the firing line on the bend and finished second last time over 2000m at this track, beaten one length. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is right in contention.
