GOING:

Allowance Race 2000m

Track: STANDARD      

Igatchi has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. IGATCHI (8) resumed a month ago over 1800m at Kyoto and was only beaten 1.2 lengths into fourth after being prominent at the corner. Has never missed the placings at the second run back. Hard to beat in this suitable race. SWALLOW CITY (10) returned from a spell six-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 8 lengths into fourth over 2000m at Tokyo. Nicely placed to find winning form. MEISHO ISLE (6) ran below expectations last time after being in contention on the turn at Niigata, finishing seventh and beaten 6 lengths starting at $4.50. Has the ability to take care of this field. MARGOT REGINA (7) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations first-up at Niigata, finishing 14th and beaten 6 lengths over 1800m. Should be in the mix this time.
