GOING:

Race 2 1300m

Track:      

Nothing to run them along so the pace looks even at best. YODONO LOVE (4) is on debut for the Maki Hirayama stable. Three-year-old filly by Oval Ace from Yodono Hope. Sure to acquit herself well. Betting the key. SPLENDIDUS (6) returned from a spell four weeks ago when she was beaten 11 lengths into fifth over 1300m at this track. Strips fitter and can feature. SIENA NO ROMA (5) is a two-start maiden who finished ninth, beaten 15 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1300m at this track. Should progress from that last outing and poses a genuine threat. FOREVER AIYA (2) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 8 lengths away in ninth over 800m at this track. No surprise to see him in the mix.
