GOING:

Maiden Race 2000m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with Bright Airy leading the way. BRIGHT AIRY (6) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish 3 lengths away in third over 2000m at Chukyo. Drawn to enjoy a good run on the speed. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. CARDAMOM (4) resumes. Raced once last prep three months ago when she finished fourth over 2000m at Nakayama. Good enough to test this line-up. ULTIMARRONE (2) has not raced since her debut on January 25 over 2000m at Nakayama when she finished fifth, beaten 3.5 lengths. Expected to be right there at the business end. SUN ROAD (1) is a three-year-old filly on debut from the stable of Masahiro Takeuchi. By Fierement from Privet. A good gate is sure to assist. Top-three chance.
