Maiden Race 1800m Track: FIRM |

Strong pace with Hold The Day, Just My Way and Sapeuse paving the way. HOLD THE DAY (4) has been about the money at all three career starts. Tired late to finish fourth last time out over 1800m at this track following a minor placing at Tokyo Dirt when fresh from a spell the run prior. Can break through in this suitable contest. JUST MY WAY (15) is a four-start maiden who finished fourth, beaten 9 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 2000m at Nakayama. Can come on from that run and looks a serious contender. POISON OAK (12) was safely held on debut last start, finishing 14 lengths behind the winner in fourth over 1800m at this track. Plenty of scope for improvement. Capable of much more this time. BLUE THERMAL (1) finished second last time over 1800m at this track when resuming from a spell, beaten 5 lengths. Ready to make her mark.
