GOING: G

Race 12 1500m

Track: GOOD      

Decent sized field but it lacks pace so only expecting a moderate tempo. COSMO BEAT IT (9) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start at Urawa, finishing sixth. Will enjoy a drop in class so he is set to turn things around. TRENCHTOWN (7) proved too strong two runs ago at Urawa. Couldn't follow that up last time out at Urawa. Finds a suitable assignment and can bounce back. APOLLO LILY (4) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations first-up at this track, finishing tenth. Perfectly placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. FELICIDADE (6) finished third last start over 1500m at Urawa. Faces an easier assignment so she is a major player.
