Race 11 1600m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|

Only a small field with Miyagi Valiant likely to find a comfortable lead. MIYAGI SIRIUS (4) returns from a break of 11 months. Genuine performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a win over 1400m at this track. Rates highly and a bold showing is expected. MIYAGI VALIANT (3) is resuming from a spell of six-and-a-half months and is looking to add to a sequence of four wins, the most recent over 1600m at this track. Has a strong association with Toshiya Yamamoto who has been in the saddle for his last two wins. Expecting a bold showing. COMBAT SPOON (2) was never in contention when resuming last start over 1600m at this track, finishing fifth and beaten 8 lengths. Has good early toe so she should be handy in the run. Winning claims on best figures. RUTILE QUARTZ (6) returns after a spell of five months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1400m at this track. Worth plenty of thought.
