GOING: G

Maiden Race 1800m

Track:      

Solid tempo set by Shinhidaka Gold and Mother's Will. WIN CHAGAS (10) is yet to break through but has been in the money three times including last start when third over 1600m at Chukyo. Has a solid record at this journey, finishing in the money on two occasions. Expected to run well. SATONO CHARLENE (1) is a three-start maiden who is knocking on the door, the latest effort a solid second at Nakayama over 1800m. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. SHINHIDAKA GOLD (7) progressed nicely last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished just 1.5 lengths from the winner in second over 1600m at Hanshin after being in contention on the corner. Looks well placed so expect another big run. MOTHER'S WILL (3) was beaten 5 lengths into fifth in a 1600m contest at Nakayama last time out. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
