Race 12 1200m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|

Cracking tempo with Nine Esquire and Kagayaki Top leading the way. A SHIN LA SEINE (3) finished second two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by 2 lengths over 1200m at this track. Ryuji Tatsushiro scored on her last time and retains the ride. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she has the ability to mix it with them. NINE ESQUIRE (9) returns after a break of four months. Has won six on end, the latest over 1200m at this track. Far too good last time out and will take beating again. LADY MELORA (8) has been out of the money at her last couple of runs, the latest when 18th at Hanshin. Down in the weights this time. Much better placed this time. KAGAYAKI TOP (7) turned in a nice effort last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished just 1.1 lengths from the winner in third over 1200m at this track. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well.
