Maiden Race 1800m Track: |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Solid tempo likely with Timeless Flair, Saliente and Tasting prominent. NARITA ESPERANZA (12) resumed from a spell last start with a sound third over 1800m at Hanshin. Suitably placed to crack the maiden win. Overdue and leading rider goes aboard. SALIENTE (14) was well fancied last start over 2000m at Hanshin when third, beaten 4 lengths. Overdue for a maiden win and looks a great chance to get off the mark. TIMELESS FLAIR (10) was well in commission last start over 2000m at this track when third, beaten 6 lengths. Back in trip and worth another chance. MEISHO TENKU (8) was 3 lengths from the winner in sixth over 1600m at Hanshin last time following a minor placing on debut the run before. Plenty of scope for improvement.
