GOING: G

Maiden Race 2000m

Track:      

Yamanin Egerie and Parasol are likely to pair-off in front at a reasonable clip. SUZUKA MIERE (4) finished out of the money two starts back then she settled well back and was beaten 2.5 lengths when fourth in a 1800m contest at Kyoto two weeks ago. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. SONIC DRIVE (13) made a promising debut over 2000m at Kyoto last start, finishing third and beaten 1.75 lengths. Has plenty of upside so she should be in the finish again. FAMILY TREE (5) was beaten half a length into second at Kyoto two starts ago then finished 5.5 lengths from the winner in fifth last time at Kyoto. Backmarker who gets home hard. Solid top-three chance. PARASOL (1) has not raced since her debut back on April 27 when she finished seventh over 2000m at Niigata. Better for that run and can improve sharply.
