GOING:

Race 12 2000m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with Seinosuke and Major Quality up front. SPIN DIEGOAL (10) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 2000m at this track after being in the firing line all the way. Will be handy in running despite the tricky draw. Nicely placed to take this out. RUTONWAJI (4) proved too strong two runs ago at this track. Couldn't follow that up last time out when fourth over 2000m at this track, beaten 4 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. LYSINE (12) ran an improved race second up last start to finish in the placings over 2000m at Kawasaki, beaten 1.5 lengths. Improvement in store so he is among the leading chances. SEINOSUKE (3) built on a nice second two starts back at Funabashi with a win as public elect over 2000m at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 2 lengths. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well.
