GOING:

Race 2 1500m

Track:      

Insufficient early speed to generate more than a muddling tempo. WALKURE QUEEN (3) was well in commission when resuming last start over 1500m at this track when sixth. Drawn to enjoy a lovely run and can take this out. LORD LUIRE (6) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 2100m at Tokyo Dirt. Strips fitter and can figure prominently. CHEERFUL DOOR (2) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1500m at this track, beaten into sixth after being prominent at the turn. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. STURM KAISER (12) resumes from a spell of five-and-a-half months and is having his first outing under new trainer Naoto Takeshita. Finished rearward at Fukushima Dirt over 1700m at the opening run last time in work.
