GOING: G

Race 2 900m

Track: GOOD      

Strong tempo with Rose Picture and Grand Freude leading from La Tarantella and Miami Matsuri. LA TARANTELLA (4) is racing well without winning, including last time when second over 1200m at Funabashi. Top contender. ROSE PICTURE (9) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1000m at Monbetsu when second, beaten 2 lengths. Sure to take a lot from that hitout so a big run is anticipated. GRAND FREUDE (8) was safely held when tenth last time out over 1500m at this track, beaten 43 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Finds a suitable assignment and can get the job done. LOVE INEVITABLE (3) was never really a threat on debut last start over 900m at this track, finishing 6 lengths from the winner in fifth. Could sneak into the finish with some natural improvement likely.
