GOING:

Race 2 1300m

Track:      

Three Rosemary and Airoso to take up the running at a genuine tempo. WIDE RAID (11) is yet to break through in nine runs. Finished 12th at her last appearance over 1200m at Niigata Dirt on May 18 after she got a long way back in the run. This offers her a great chance of breaking through. AOI PHOTOGRAPH (1) could only manage 11th two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1400m at this track, beaten only a neck after being in the firing line on the bend. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. PIN ZORO (2) drifted well back and failed to finish it off last start when eighth, beaten 17 lengths, over 1400m at Kawasaki. Beautifully placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. THREE ROSEMARY (3) was safely held in tougher company two runs back then appreciated the drop in grade last time and scored over 1400m at this track. Solid top-three prospects.
