GOING:

Race 2 1400m

Track:      

Solid tempo anticipated with Three Romance taking charge. BEAR ANGEL (11) did a great job to score by 5 lengths over this course and distance last start to maintain her good form of late. Can go back-to-back. BOUQUET DE BOIS (12) has been safely held at her last couple of runs, the latest over 2000m at Chukyo when she was prominent before fading late to finish 15th. Finds an easier assignment and is a winning hope. THREE ROMANCE (6) showed good speed here last time over 1300m and led into the straight before being claimed and fading to finish fourth. Masayoshi Yamasaki who has two wins when partnering stays on. Has claims on her best figures. JAUNE CARRERA (2) was seventh in a 1400m contest at this track at her latest appearance. Nicely placed to find some form.
