GOING:

Allowance Race 1400m

Track:      

Hot tempo expected from Shinhidaka Gold and Meisho Sachidake. CHIMUGUKURU (8) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with only one victory from 10 starts. Did a good job last start to finish third over 1400m at this track, beaten 0.8 lengths. In the right race and there is no reason he cannot get the major prize. SANATION (14) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths into sixth. Good enough to test this field. PHOTIC (4) was fresh from a break of four months last start when beaten 2 lengths into fifth over 1200m at Chukyo after he was well back on straightening. Boasts three wins at this distance. Among the winning hopes. DANON CASERTA (13) returns from a spell of four-and-a-half months. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when fifth over 2200m at Chukyo. Best form puts him right in contention.
