GOING:

Race 11 1400m

Track:      

Plenty of runners but a dawdling affair is on the cards. PICTURE CARD (6) made progress last time out, finishing 2.5 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1400m at this track. Seishiro Osawa gets the best out of this three-year-old colt. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. ZENIT (5) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was always well out of his ground over 1400m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths into fifth. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. GEMPACHI HAMAJI (4) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 3 lengths into fourth. The engagement of Eita Inoue is noteworthy. Faces an easier assignment so he can find the winners' list. KEEP IN MIND (12) hit the frame two starts ago at this track but ran below par last time when 11th and beaten 11 lengths over 1400m at this track. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time.
