GOING:

Race 12 1600m

Track:      

Moderate pace only with Jardin Du Roi leading Mauritius Aroma. JARDIN DU ROI (6) is poised to win after placing at his last three outings, most recently when third over 1800m at this track. Ideally placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. MAURITIUS AROMA (13) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 1500m at Urawa after being in the firing line on the bend. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. CLOCHE NOIRE (8) has not won for a long while. Last raced on August 12 when sixth at Urawa over 2000m. Finds a more suitable contest and can make amends. FINAL WONDER (10) resumes from a spell of nine weeks and is having his first outing under a new trainer. Finished ninth at Kawasaki over 2000m at the opening run last time in work.
