GOING:

Allowance Race 1200m

Track:      

Fast pace assured with Tana Supernova, Nori Nori Socks and Le Brillant leading the charge. TANA SUPERNOVA (8) got off the mark over 1200m at Kyoto last start, scoring by 1.5 lengths. Progressing well and this looks a very winnable assignment. PIERCED EARS (2) ran a strong third over 1200m at Fukushima two runs back then was below his best last time over 1400m when fifth, beaten 3.5 lengths. Kept fresh since that last run - can feature. RIPI (6) returned from a spell three weeks ago when she was beaten 5 lengths into sixth over 1400m at Hanshin. Fitter and sure to run well. LE BRILLANT (1) returns from a layoff of seven months for new trainer Ryo Takahashi. Filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1200m at Fukushima. Worth including.
