GOING:

Race 2 1000m

Track:      

The trio Tengu Club, Killer Princess and Logan Mountain will set a strong tempo. TENGU CLUB (3) made it two wins in a row last time out when he scored by one length over 1400m at Mizusawa. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. LOGAN MOUNTAIN (1) showed little early speed last start and failed to come on in the straight when ninth over 850m at Mizusawa. Likely improver with strong prospects. T'S AVANCE (2) has been in the market at her last couple of runs but failed to threaten, the latest effort a modest fifth at Mizusawa over 850m. Look for a better run this time out. GO GO ONLY (7) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when eighth over 850m at Mizusawa. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
