GOING:

Race 12 1300m

Track:      

Expecting Chikichiki Cheetah to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint trip. HO O VERITE (11) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1400m at this track. Can go a couple better here. CHIKICHIKI CHEETAH (7) showed good early speed then led into the straight last start before fighting on to finish second over 1400m at this track. Expected to be in the finish again. SOMETHING GREAT (9) ran a better race and finished fourth last time out over 1400m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. K BALLADE (8) missed the frame last start over 1400m here when ninth. Worth noting Takuya Okamura goes aboard. Better than recent efforts suggest and worth consideration here.
