Race 12 1700m Track: GOOD |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Solid tempo anticipated with Meisho Ichizu taking charge. LILABAD (1) has returned in good shape this preparation. Opened with a second at this track two starts back then got the job done by 0.8 lengths as favourite last time out over 1700m at this track. Masaaki Kuwamura scored on him last time and retains the mount. Top hope. MEISHO ICHIZU (4) reunites with Yamato Ishikawa after scoring with ease over 1600m at this track last time. Drawn to enjoy a good run on the speed. Leading contender. FOUETTE (10) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest at this track over 1600m. Change of jockey to Genta Ochiai who has a strong record when aboard, including five wins. Capable of running a bold race. DAVAY ESPERANZA (11) has been in the market at his last couple of starts since resuming but hasn't made an impression, last start running fourth at this track. Can sneak into the finish.
