GOING: S

Race 10 1400m

Track: SOFT      

Plenty of pace from Canele Flavor, Mazao and Bless Word ahead of Keten Dream. CANELE FLAVOR (2) raced on the speed and kept going to score by 2 lengths when resuming last time out over 1400m at this track. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is one of the chief contenders. KETEN DREAM (6) turned in a moderate midfield finish when resuming from a spell three weeks ago over 1600m at this track. Second up record is strong so she is among the leading chances. BLESS WORD (1) finished third over 1800m at this track at his most recent appearance on March 13. Among the better hopes. BELLWOOD ONE (8) is coming along nicely this prep, scoring by a neck last start over 1200m at Funabashi. Solid top-three prospects.
