GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Strong early tempo with A Shin Pop and Yamatake Preda leading the way. SILVER VRE (5) showed good pace and went on to score by 5 lengths last time out over 1500m at Kanazawa. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. TOKINO SHOHEI (6) started at $3.80 last time and ran below expectations, finishing seventh and beaten 2.75 lengths at this track over 1300m. Likely improver with strong prospects. A SHIN POP (2) did little and finished 17 lengths from the winner in 11th over 1300m at this track last start after being in contention on the bend, a less impressive effort than his eighth at this track the run before. Likely improver with strong prospects. SHIBANO NASTURTIUM (4) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1300m at this track, beaten 16 lengths into tenth. Don't discount.
