GOING:

Race 11 1700m

Track:      

Papita, Epic Night and Hakusan Spring to take up the running at a strong tempo. COVINHA (1) raced on the pace last start and lifted strongly to hold second, beaten 2 lengths, over today's journey at this track. Finds a tougher race but another big run is on the cards. MEGA GOLD (7) was leading on the turn and fought on to finish second over 2000m at this track at his latest appearance. Form here at this trip is sound. Hitomi Miyashita who has scored on him four times retains the mount. Will strip fitter and is one of the big chances. MELT (2) is back from a spell of 11 weeks and does go well when fresh, including a win to launch last campaign over 1500m at this track. Winning chance while fresh. KEY JUPITER (5) returned from a spell two weeks ago when he was fourth over 1700m at this track. Fitter and a top-three prospect.
