GOING:

Race 2 1400m

Track:      

Tricky, given the lack of early speed. MASANO VISION (4) raced close to the lead before clearing out to score an effortless 6 lengths win over 1300m at this track last time. Among the top chances again. MIRAIENO SHINGEKI (1) resumed last time out and finished third over 1400m at this track, beaten 4 lengths. Best figures measure up favourably. TEN RICH SMILE (7) was always well back last start at the first run of this campaign and never threatened, finishing tenth over 1400m at this track. Winning rider Ryo Takamatsu sticks. Fitter and capable of playing a big role. THAGIMASADAS (5) is a 20-start maiden who returned last time and finished eighth at this track over 1400m, beaten 6 lengths. Will derive great benefit from that outing and deserves consideration.
