GOING:

Race 12 1200m

Track:      

Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Bow Vogue. SAYONAKIDORI (12) made it two on the trot when an emphatic winner last time over 1200m at this track with today's rider Genta Ochiai engaged. Should park just off the speed. Big chance to deliver again. GOD BAROQUE (5) knuckled down strongly to get within 0.8 lengths of the winner in second last start over 1200m at this track. That continued a string of wins and placings including a victory two back. Ryu Abe who has scored on him twice retains the mount. Likely to play a big role. BOW VOGUE (6) won his maiden five starts back and is nearing another victory with placings at his last two runs, most recently when third over 1200m at this track. Reunites with Masaaki Kuwamura who has a win when partnering. Can be competitive. BLUMENGARTEN (13) found the line nicely last start for third over 1200m at this track. Don't underestimate.
