GOING:

Race 12 1200m

Track:      

A solid tempo on the cards with Dream Believer heading them off. DAIMEI CORRIDA (1) returned to winning form last start, scoring by 2.5 lengths over this journey at this track. Has a good record at this course and distance, including four wins and four placings. Top chance. DREAM BELIEVER (6) was well found in the betting last time out but could only manage to finish sixth over 1200m at this track in a disappointing performance. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. TOKAI ETOILE (4) settled well back last start when fifth over 1200m at this track. Has ability and is worth another chance. LOFTY PHRASE (3) finished fifth last time out over 1000m at this track. Strong top-three chance in this line-up.

Racing well. At the latest run won by 2.5 len at this track June 20 over 1200m defeating Dodo Kirishima with 56kg at $7.30. The start before that set the pace for much of the race 3rd of 7 at this track on June 5 over 1200m, 1.5 len behind Der Flug with 56kg at $3.20. Got the job done last time and is a leading hope again.
