GOING:

Race 11 1500m

Track:      

Solid tempo with Big Better leading from Sano Pre and Mask Try. MASK TRY (2) followed an unplaced effort first-up with a second last start over 1500m. Key chance who can play a major role. KENDOCHORAI (5) scored at her most recent appearance, getting home by 4 lengths over 1700m at this track. That continued the solid form this campaign and can measure up again. SANO PRE (11) is back from a spell of four-and-a-half months. Closed last campaign with a minor placing over 1400m at Kasamatsu. Definite top-three chance. MEISHO KOMUSUBI (12) was safely held when seventh last time out over 1700m at this track after a win here at the previous outing. Worth plenty of thought.
