Race 11 1800m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|

Strong tempo, primarily from Miniature and Hiroshikun. LAST MAN (7) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by one length over 1600m at this track as favourite. That continued the good form this campaign and took the record here to five wins from just seven starts. Leading player again. MINIATURE (6) was good when finishing third last start over 1400m at Mizusawa. Boasts an impressive strike rate here with nine wins from 12 starts. One of the major players. HIROSHIKUN (10) was an effortless winner last time over 1600m at Mizusawa, scoring by 4 lengths. Expected to cross from wide out and is likely to be competitive. FULGURANT (9) turned in a better effort last time out to score by half a length over 1600m at Mizusawa. Could be there at the finish again.
