KAWASAKI   11 Nov 2024
 
GOING: G

Race 11 1500m

Track: GOOD      

The speedy Sarasa One should find the front with Meta Specter and Sayono Field on his heels. SARASA ONE (4) went to the paddock after scoring at his last appearance five months ago over 1400m at this track. Has recorded two wins when first up from a break. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. FALCON SWORD (1) finished third when resuming from a spell last start over 1600m at this track. Goes well at this journey with three wins from seven starts. Ticks all the right boxes. SAYONO FIELD (12) improved last start to finish second over 1500m at this track. Taking on a better line-up this time but he is up to the challenge. SUN ALSO RISE (7) did a great job to score by 3 lengths over today's course and distance last start to maintain her good form of late. No reason she cannot salute again.
