GOING:

Race 12 920m

Track:      

Light Speed has enough pace to take up the running from her wide draw in a low-pressure affair. HELD (6) missed the frame last start over 1500m at this track when seventh. Worth noting Soichi Kato goes aboard. Finds the right race this time and can turn things around. SHINING WAY (4) turned in an eye-catching run over 1700m at this track last time, ridden back before coming home with a powerful run to finish second. Expected to prove tough to hold out again. OSTFALEN (12) finished third last time over 1500m at this track. Masaaki Ohata gets the best out of this five-year-old entire. Ready to go a couple better. PARTIDA (10) has struggled to recapture his best form in two runs, the latest when sixth over 1500m at this track. Jumps from a wide draw but can do much better.
