GOING:

Race 2 1400m

Track:      

Expecting Pasadena Dream to take up the running with Best Of King and Face Nine close at hand. COSMO TSUKASA (1) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when third over 1400m at this track. Definite threat in this line-up. PASADENA DREAM (2) was well fancied last start over 1400m at this track when second. Nicely placed and rates highly off that run. Expected in the finish. KURINO SUNSHINE (7) finished fourth last start over 1400m at this track in an improved run. Finds a nice race this time and deserves another chance. FACE NINE (9) showed good speed here last time over 1400m and led into the straight before being claimed and fading to finish fourth. Can feature with the right run.
