GOING: G

Race 11 1400m

Track: GOOD     True  

Solid tempo anticipated with Tea Five heading them off. TEA FIVE (5) finished third over 1400m at this track at his most recent appearance on January 9. Boasts a first-up record of two wins and two placings from seven starts. Expect him to play a major role. AIRPORT LINER (10) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second last time out over 1500m at this track. Has to overcome a tricky draw. In a suitable race and can play a major role. MIZUWARIO KUDASAI (1) improved sharply to win over 1200m at Ohi a week-and-a-half ago, getting home by half a length. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. VINA SUCCESS (6) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.75 lengths from the winner in third over 1500m at Kawasaki. Go well.
