GOING:

Race 2 1400m

Track:      

Tactical given the lack of speed. INNAMORATO (6) missed the frame two back in tougher company then last time in easier did much better when third over 1400m at this track. Looks suited in this line-up. Go close. TECHNIKOS (3) is a six-start maiden who returned last time and finished ninth at Nakayama over 1800m. Will take a lot from that hit-out and looks a strong chance to break through in this suitable race. BRAVE CHEVALIER (4) could only manage to finish fifth at his latest appearance over 1400m at this track. Expected to feature in the finish this time. NIHONPIRO MILAK (1) missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, finishing fourth. Finds a nice race and is in the mix.
