GOING:

Race 12 1200m

Track:      

Expecting a solid pace with Bellagio Zero, Kappagi and Mononofu Black leading the charge. MONONOFU BLACK (1) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish 0.6 lengths away in third over 1200m at this track. Enjoys a drop in grade so she is likely to play a big role. JORGE (10) was a narrow winner two back at this track then in the placings last time at this track. Will appreciate the drop in the weights. Genta Ochiai stays aboard. Bold showing expected. BELLAGIO ZERO (8) clocked-in third behind K's Reve last time out at Nagoya over 1500m. Has a strong record this course, scoring at three of six starts. One of the contenders. TOMONO SILVER (5) produced a reasonable effort when second last start over 1200m at this track. That followed a win at this track the start prior. In contention this time.
