GOING: S

Race 3 1400m

Track: SOFT     True  

Million Live to take up the running at a moderate tempo. MILLION LIVE (7) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1400m at Kawasaki after being in contention all the way. Settles close to the speed. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. RIKEA ORANGE (5) is a eight-start maiden who finished 13th at her most recent appearance over 1200m at Fukushima after she gave away a big start. Finds a suitable assignment this time and is a great chance to break through. COLORFUL PEACH (8) resumes from a spell of five-and-a-half months. Looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 1400m at this track. One of the leading chances. MAGIC TAKT (10) is fitter for two runs back from a spell, progressing nicely last time to finish third, beaten 3.5 lengths, at Funabashi over 1200m. Looks a definite top-three candidate.
