GOING: G

Race 12 1800m

Track: GOOD     True  

Expecting Presto Emma to take up the running with Fifties and Win Briller close at hand. PRESTO EMMA (4) has struck form at just the right time, scoring in her last two starts, the latest by a neck over 1500m at this track. With two wins from three outings this campaign, she is racing in top shape and looks set to be competitive again. DAITA JUSTICE (6) ended her last campaign with a couple of minor placings, the latest here over this trip nine weeks ago, and should be prominent throughout. CHROME WOLF (11) ran fourth last start over 1500m at Kawasaki after being prominent early, having won well on debut at the same track. Nicely placed today and capable of improvement. WIN BRILLER (1) closed strongly into third at Urawa over 2000m and looks well suited to this assignment.
