GOING:

THE TOKYO SPORTS HAI NISAI STAKES 1800m

Track: STANDARD      

Solid pace with Teruhiko and Salesio showing out with Danon History also applying pressure. Some very smart youngsters come together. DANON HISTORY (9) wasted no time getting off the mark as favourite on debut over 1800m at this track five-and-a-half months ago and has not raced since. Promising type who can measure up again despite taking on a far deeper race. REICHSADLER (4) impressed when successful as favourite on debut over 1800m at Nakayama ten weeks ago and has not appeared since. Has plenty of upside and looks to have a very bright future. LORBEERKRANZ (5) has not been sighted since he scored over 2000m at Chukyo on August 17, the only run of that campaign. Keeps improving and can give this a shake. PEINTRE NAIF (10) looks to launch this prep the way he ended the last nine weeks ago when he scored over 1800m at Nakayama. Strong contender.

Comes here off a 44-day let-up. Last start won by 0.5 len at this track October 11 over 1800m defeating Lys Legendaire carrying 56.0kg at $3.90. The run before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 10 at Nakayama on September 21 over 1800m, 1.3 len behind Peintre Naif with 55.0kg at $86.50. Might just find this lot a bit smart.
