GOING:

Race 2 1400m

Track:      

Kikkake and Medatsu Yatsu possess good early speed and will set a genuine tempo. MACCABAEUS (5) finished a head away in third last time out at this track. On a seven-day back-up. Good effort last start and will be hard to beat. FUTURE AGAIN (8) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.3 lengths from the winner in third over 1400m at Morioka Dirt. Worth noting Toshiya Yamamoto goes aboard. Looks well placed so expect another big run. WAIMANGU (4) lines up on the back of a 2.75 lengths fourth over 1400m at this track. One of the main contenders. KIKKAKE (7) finished third at Morioka Dirt two runs back but was less effective last time over 1400m at Morioka Dirt, finishing 9 lengths back in sixth. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time.
