GOING:

Maiden Race 2600m

Track:      

A few sit handy but there won't be a great deal of early pressure. COSMO ACHIEVE (2) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 2200m at Nakayama after being in the firing line on the turn. Finds a suitable race and looks a great chance to finally break through. DRAGUIGNAN (10) is a five-start maiden who finished fifth, beaten 3 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 2200m at Chukyo. Will take a lot from that hit-out and looks a serious threat. MEINER FISCHIO (12) found the frame for the first time when second over 2200m at Chukyo last time out. Heading in the right direction and will be hard to beat in this suitable race. WIN IL NEIGE (11) returns after 11 weeks in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a fourth over 2000m at Kokura. Rates highly on that form and should be in the mix.
