GOING: G

Race 2 1400m

Track: GOOD      

Strong tempo with Tranquil Light and Harbor Show leading from Sun Shimme Fleur and Aljanah. TRANQUIL LIGHT (2) showed good pace over 1400m at this track last time and defied all challengers to score by 5 lengths. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. ALJANAH (4) is a progressive three-year-old colt who hasn't raced since finishing second over 1400m at this track on March 17. Has won when fresh from a spell in the past. Should be poised just off the lead. Expected to be in the finish. HARBOR SHOW (1) was an impressive winner last time over 1400m at Kawasaki, leading throughout and putting 6 lengths on his rivals. One of the main contenders. LEMON DROP (3) ran a better race last start, finishing fifth over 1400m at this track. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
