GOING:

Race 12 1500m

Track:      

Expecting a strong pace headed by Plus Ultra, Hakusan Sakuyahime and Pantelleria. SAKURA RUFEN (8) is in a purple patch of form with his third straight win coming last time out over 1400m at this track. Noboru Asano aboard again and should be in the finish. TRAJECTOIRE (7) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by 7 lengths over 1500m at this track as favourite. That continued the very strong form this campaign, with three wins from five starts. Leading player again. PLUS ULTRA (1) led throughout last start to score an effortless 3 lengths win over 1400m at this track. Hirohisa Tachi who has two wins when partnering stays on. One of the main contenders. DREAM SPURT (4) scored last start at this track to make it three wins and two placings from six starts this campaign. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Can feature in the finish.
