GOING:

Race 2 1200m

Track:      

Charis Theia to go to the lead at a genuine tempo. ARDE MURATA (6) was always well out of her ground when 11 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1300m at Mizusawa last start, a less impressive effort than her fifth at Mizusawa the run before. Nicely placed to take this out. CHARIS THEIA (7) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1300m at Mizusawa after being in the firing line on the turn. Nicely placed to take this out. DYNAMIX (10) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fourth over 1200m at this track after being in contention on the turn. Likely improver with strong prospects. KAZEYOBI (9) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1300m at Mizusawa, beaten 10 lengths into fourth. Nicely placed to find some form.

The run before that 4th of 11 at Mizusawa on June 14 over 1300m, 9 len behind Yamanin L'alliance with 54kg at $5.40. Better than that recent lacklustre performance suggests.
