GOING:

Race 11 1600m

Track:      

Strong tempo primarily from Best Green, Pyromancer and Fleur D'or over Tamamo Freesia and Idaten Shacho. PYROMANCER (4) remains unbeaten after two starts, scoring again last time over 1800m at Kyoto Dirt. Kept fresh and expected to be in the finish once again. FLEUR D'OR (2) pushed forward last time and battled on gamely to finish just a neck from the winner in second over 1800m at Monbetsu. Steps up a level but she is up to the task. BEST GREEN (5) is a strong first-up performer who is fresh from a spell of nine weeks. Was in great form before the break with four consecutive wins. Fuma Ono has been the pilot at his last four wins. Has claims on his best figures. TAMAMO FREESIA (1) is a talented galloper who is unbeaten from two runs, the latest success coming over 1800m at Monbetsu. Kept fresh and expected to be in the finish once again.

Looking to keep her unbeaten record intact. At big odds on debut, scored a big 3.5 len win at Kyoto Dirt October 12 over 1800m defeating Zion Dancer with 55.0kg at $25.90. Last start ran on from midfield and won by a neck at Monbetsu November 3 over 1800m defeating Fleur D'or carrying 55kg at $10. Sure to be about the money.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 44 day let-up. Most recently tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 11 at Monbetsu on November 3 over 1800m, neck behind Tamamo Freesia with 55kg at $5.70. Before that won by 1.0 len at Kyoto Dirt October 4 over 1800m defeating Meisho Koshu with 55.0kg at $4.50. Doesn’t need to improve much to salute.

Last start favourite; won by 0.5 len at Kyoto Dirt November 2 over 1800m defeating Wonder Dean with 56.0kg at $3. Well-placed and should prove hard to beat.

Colt returning from a spell and has won previously when first up. Finished off last preparation to post a big 4 len win. This track October 15 over 1600m defeating Handen Drake with 55kg at $1.40.
