GOING: S

Race 11 1800m

Track: SOFT     True  

Reasonable tempo with Saint Honore probably leading but a few others should keep him honest. SAINT HONORE (2) is back from a break of three-and-a-half months. Raced below par at his only appearance last prep when sixth over 1500m at Nagoya. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Will play a major role. SHIN YOMOGINESU (1) has been out of the money at his last couple of runs, the latest when 16th at Nakayama Dirt. Down in the weights this time. Big class drop today and can atone. GERALDO BAROWS (4) finished fifth over 1800m at Ohi at his most recent appearance on February 17. Makes plenty of appeal. GIGA KING (7) got the prize two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when fifth over 1600m at this track, beaten 7 lengths. One of the main hopes.
