GOING:

Race 2 1500m

Track:      

Selas Aeras has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. RUKO BEAUTY (7) finished second in a much better run last time at this track over 920m. Sure to go well again. SELAS AERAS (6) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second last start over 1500m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. LEG THROUGH (4) finished out of the money when seventh over 1500m at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago. Finds a nice race and can play a significant role. OGURI MCQUEEN (11) last appeared six weeks ago over 1200m at Monbetsu when he finished fourth. This is his first run for the Akiko Okita stable. Should be primed for this.
