GOING: G

Maiden Race 1200m

Track: MUDDY      

Bourbon Queen, Mirai Harmony and Smart Rave to take up the running at a decent tempo. SHADOFF (13) was close to breaking through last time, beaten just half a length over 1200m at Kyoto. Starting to put it together and is ideally placed to open her account. MIRAI HARMONY (2) wasn't far off maiden success before a break of ten weeks, finishing the campaign with a minor placing over 1200m at Fukushima. Good effort to launch last prep when in the money at Fukushima over 1200m. Hard to beat if back in good order as anticipated. BOURBON QUEEN (3) is yet to break through after eight starts but not far off a win. Placed two back then missed the frame but was thereabouts last time over 1200m at Niigata. Drawn to go forward. Best form stacks up and she is among the chances. ROUGE REINAS (1) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at Kyoto, beaten 2.5 lengths into ninth. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
