GOING: G

Race 11 1400m

Track: GOOD      

Expecting a strong tempo, predominantly from Loose Aggressive, Unoki Bombaye and Moriken. LOOSE AGGRESSIVE (3) remains unbeaten after two starts, scoring again last time over 1500m at this track. Effortless win last start and sure to be in the finish again. KEN SIRIUS (4) won his maiden over this course and distance last start, getting the verdict by 2.5 lengths. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and he cannot be discounted. MORIKEN (6) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 30 lengths over 1200m at Funabashi. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is capable of testing his rivals. ORANGE LUCIFER (2) was in contention on the turn and finished third last time over 1400m at Ohi, beaten 6 lengths. Will trim down following recent racing. Suitably placed so anticipating another forward showing.
