GOING:

Race 12 1400m

Track:      

Lack of early speed means Daimei Kosuzu could find the lead. SURE WINNER (7) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 12 lengths when fourth in a 1400m contest at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Likely improver with strong prospects. RAIMEI WIZARD (8) returns after a spell of six months. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1000m at Monbetsu. Expect her to play a major role. LEONFORTE (11) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was never in contention over 1400m at this track, beaten 14 lengths into seventh. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. TOYO RYUO (12) returns from a layoff of five months. Scored over 1400m at Kasamatsu at the start of last prep. Comes here with definite top-three claims.
