GOING:

Race 11 1900m

Track:      

Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Labuanbajo. KAYADO BLACK (1) was sent out favourite last time and scored by a neck at this track. Boasts 10 wins here. Myojo Haru Dai who has seven wins when partnering stays on. Bold showing expected. IINE IINE IINE (6) carried on the great form last start when he lifted to score over 1900m at this track, making it back-to-back wins in the process. Winning claims yet again. LABUANBAJO (8) turned in a handy position before finishing second last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 0.8 lengths as favourite. Tatsuya Watanabe is a key engagement. Finds a tougher race but this looks well within his grasp. SAMMARU LEGEND (11) gave a great sight last time over 1500m at Nagoya when he raced up on the pace and fought on gamely only to be narrowly beaten. Masaaki Ohata who has seven wins when partnering stays on. Deserves respect.
