GOING:

Race 2 1400m

Track:      

A solid tempo is anticipated with Mark Of Zorro and Isabelle Soleil kicking up to hold out the next wave. ISABELLE SOLEIL (3) went forward last start over 1500m at Nagoya and held on well for third. Finds a suitable assignment and can get the chocolates. GINNO ARANAMI (8) ran fourth at his latest appearance over 1600m at this track, clocking in 3 lengths from the winner. Has a good record at this journey and is a key runner. KITANO ROWERS (5) finished seventh at her most recent appearance over 1600m at this track after she got a long way back in the run. Finds the right race and is worth consideration. MARK OF ZORRO (6) has been racing well including a last start second over 1400m at this track. Hard to leave out.
