GOING: G

Maiden Race 1400m

Track:      

Weissklee has good gate speed and likely to set a genuine tempo with the advantage of the inside draw. LONG TEE KETCHUP (14) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was never in contention over 1200m at Kokura, beaten 7 lengths into eighth. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this ordinary race. HATSUNAGI (6) is a three-year-old colt facing the starter for the first time. From a strong family that has produced Gr 1 placegetter Final Song, being by Night Of Thunder from Rahiyah. Promising type who is sure to be well-found in betting. KITANO BRIDGE (15) is a five-start maiden who finished seventh at her most recent appearance over 1600m at Hanshin. Cannot be ruled out in this suitable assignment. WEISSKLEE (1) ran a better race last start, finishing 4 lengths away in fourth over 1200m at Kokura. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
