GOING:

Race 12 1500m

Track:      

Off the low draw Yama Circle can take it up a race lacking a genuine leader. Open race to close out the card. LADY MAJESTY (10) failed to figure again last time over 1500m at this track, beaten 8 lengths into tenth. Looks well placed this line-up and deserves another chance. FUKUCHAN FUKUMEI (12) was safely held last time when beaten 6 lengths into eighth at today's course and distance. Has a wide gate to contend with again but is better than last start and open to sharp improvement. UP MONSTER (3) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 16 lengths when seventh over 1500m here two weeks ago. Finds a nice race and can play a significant role from the favourable draw. RIKO CRUSADER (9) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1500m at this course, beaten 6 lengths into ninth. Capable of featuring prominently.
