GOING:

Race 12 820m

Track:      

Nothing to run them along so the pace looks even at best. CRESCO TAISHI (2) opened this prep last start with a third over 820m at this track. Has a sound record here with two wins and two minor placings from eight starts. Big run is likely. VENT SAISONNIER (8) turned in a fine effort to score by half a length at today's track and distance last start in a much improved run. Could be hard to beat again in this suitable race. MONONOFU YELLOW (9) finished fifth last time out over 820m at this track. One of the key chances. JHANG MAGHIANA (7) ran well despite being friendless in betting last time over 820m at this track, finishing third and beaten 0.8 lengths at $24.60. Minor claims.
