GOING:

Race 12 1700m

Track:      

Plenty of pace with Hakusan Miracle and Aoi Mimosa leading from Ryuno Asraam. BALMY WEATHER (9) made it two wins on the bounce last time out when he got home by a nose over 1500m at this track. Looks very tough to beat again. HAKUSAN MIRACLE (2) made progress last time out, finishing 2.5 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1700m at this track. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. ISAMU SANKA (8) was a dominant winner last time over 1700m at this track, getting home by 2.5 lengths. Sure to be competitive. AOI MIMOSA (4) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when 13th over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt after being prominent at the bend. Has the ability to take this out.
