GOING:

Race 12 900m

Track:      

Solid tempo anticipated with Nishino Claudia and Aile Libre matching motors. NISHINO CLAUDIA (7) went forward last start over 800m at Urawa and held on well for third. Racing well, placing in three of four starts since winning at Urawa. Big chance to get the chocolates. ART OF LIFE (6) resumes having finished second over 1400m at this track at her most recent appearance on March 6. Capable of playing a major role fresh. TURINA WRIGHT (2) has been out of the money at the last couple of runs but put together a string of top-two finishes prior. Draws to advantage so expect a better showing. SILVER LIP (8) showed good early dash and led throughout to score by 0.8 lengths last time out over 900m at this track. Respect.
