GOING: G

Race 11 1400m

Track: GOOD     True  

Moderate tempo with Jo Ilmur leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. KEN ATLAS (2) has been going well this preparation, scoring last start over 1400m at this track to make it two wins from four runs this time in. Genki Fujimoto who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Among the leading chances. JO ILMUR (1) was expected to do more last start when out of the placings at Kawasaki. Going up a level this time but she has the ability to mix it with them. JUN KUTTARA (7) found the line nicely to grab third last time out over 1400m at this track. All set to run well. MIRACLE RUNBACK (4) finished sixth in a 2000m contest at Kawasaki at his latest appearance. Finds a nice race and can make amends.

Useful filly. Comes here off a 38-day let-up. Most recently 7th of 12 at Kawasaki on May 10 over 1400m, 8 len behind Hell Shake carrying 54kg at $4.30. The run before that 6th of 12 at this track on April 18 over 1400m, 4.5 len behind Der Sturm carrying 54kg at $2.40. The inside alley is a real bonus.

Form hard to fault. Last start raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 0.5 len at this track May 22 over 1400m defeating Spinnaker carrying 57kg at $9. The start before that crossed from a wide gate to settle just off the pace but gave ground when 3rd of 12 at Kawasaki on May 6 over 1600m, 3 len behind Snowshoe with 56kg at $47.20. Sure to go well again.
