GOING: S

Race 12 1200m

Track: SOFT      

Strong tempo with Whisky Time and Italo leading from Sakki Mitsugu and Win Komachi. DUAL RONDO (14) fought on for second last start over 1200m at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Awkwardly drawn and might need a little luck early. Well placed this line-up and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. NORTH JUSTICE (13) was back from a break last start and finished second over this distance at this track, beaten one length. Form here strong boasting eight wins from 15 starts. Well placed and should be in the finish. KOYU YUMENOYO (3) has switched yards since finishing ninth a month ago over 1200m at Chukyo Dirt. Worth plenty of thought. ITALO (10) had been in top form landing three consecutive wins but last start missed the frame when 13th over 1200m at this track. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Must be respected.
