GOING:

Race 3 1500m

Track:      

Dawdling affair devoid of a pacemaker. IL VIGORE (5) is a four-start maiden who finished seventh at his most recent appearance over 1500m at this track. This looks a nice race so expect him to be right in the finish. SCERA VENUS (7) is a five-start maiden who returned last time and finished 11th at Niigata over 2000m. Among the leading chances here in easier with the run under her belt. SUNRISE LONDON (8) last appeared a month ago over 1600m at Kyoto when he finished 16th. This is his first run for the Katsuyuki Imazu stable. Sure to make his presence felt. WESTERN CHRIS (10) was 11th in a 1600m contest at Tokyo Dirt six weeks ago. Nicely placed to find some form in this suitable race.
