GOING:

Race 11 1750m

Track:      

Strong tempo with Happy Gift, Nothing On You and Hatenabito going forward ahead of Derma Okuridashi and Svarna Paksa. HATENABITO (11) has switched yards since scoring by 10 lengths at Sonoda over 1870m on May 23. Makes plenty of appeal in the new surrounds. TOP REACH (3) was sent out favourite last time and scored by 7 lengths at this track. Has started four times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Takuto Demizu who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Should be hard to stop. HAPPY GIFT (6) had been racing well with two consecutive placings before last start managing only ninth over 1750m at this track. Should camp just off the leaders. Will be in this for a long way. FINAL SWORD (8) turned things around last start and got the job done by 0.8 lengths over 1300m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run.
