GOING: G

Race 12 1400m

Track: GOOD      

Keen battle for the lead with Happy Gate, Win Irene and Token Renan in advance of Shadow Lupin and Sound Courage. SHADOW LUPIN (8) finished second at this track and distance at his last appearance four months ago. Rates highly and should take some beating fresh. REGGAE BEACH (3) is in top form with two wins on end, the most recent an effortless 5 lengths victory over 1400m at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago. Yoichi Ando who has two wins when partnering stays on. Major player. HAPPY GATE (6) scored over this course and distance last time after racing on the speed then lifting to score by a nose. Has a strong record at this course, scoring three times from six starts. Winning claims. YOZORANO MUKONI (14) missed the placings last start when tenth over 1400m at this track. Finds a nice race and can bounce back.
