GOING:

Race 3 1600m

Track:      

Genuine tempo from Glorious King leading Akhnaten. GLORIOUS KING (3) went around over this course and distance last time and led from the outset to score by 1.3 lengths. Sure to take some stopping again. KING OF WORLD (2) did a good job last start to finish third over 1600m at Mizusawa, beaten 5 lengths. Placed to advantage and can run another bold race. YUME KAIDO (6) hasn’t been far away since a maiden win six runs back, the latest effort a third over 1800m at this track on January 17. Right in the mix. NAMPASEN (5) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1400m at this track. Looks to be in the right race so he should be in contention again.
