GOING: G

Maiden Race 1200m

Track: FIRM      

Strong tempo assured with Tempest Heroine, Zhende Anemos and London Kid rolling to the front. ZHENDE ANEMOS (11) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 3.5 lengths when fifth in a 1600m contest at Tokyo Dirt four weeks ago after being in contention on the corner. Likely improver with strong prospects. TEMPEST HEROINE (4) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1000m at Niigata when second, beaten one length. Will benefit from that experience so she will prove tough to beat. AYU TSURI (8) returned from a spell four weeks ago when she was beaten 5.5 lengths into fifth over 1600m at Tokyo. Strips fitter and can feature. WONDER CAFE (2) is a three-year-old filly on debut from the stable of M Koga. By Kinshasa No Kiseki from Cafe Rayon. A good gate is sure to assist. Worth watching for a betting push.
