Race 11 2000m Track: |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Blue Win is likely to take charge and set a decent tempo. BLUE WIN (7) pushed forward and went on to record a determined win last start by half a length over 1500m at this track. Finds a tougher race but she has the talent to test this line-up. NIHONPIRO TIES (6) finished out of the money when fresh from a spell two starts back then he settled well back and finished tenth over 2000m at Kyoto five-and-a-half weeks ago. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a pivotal role in this more suitable race. DAGR FORCE (1) showed good early dash and stalked the pace last start before drawing clear to score by a neck over 1600m at Kasamatsu. Among the main hopes. ERNANI (2) improved last start but found one better over 1700m at this track, beaten one length. No surprise to see him in the frame.
