GOING: G

Maiden Race 1600m

Track: FIRM      

Expecting Route Thirteen to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. ANDURIL (4) finished 0.8 lengths from the winner in second on debut over 1600m at Hanshin on June 7 and has not appeared since. Looks the goods so he looks the one to beat. WHITE FLAMES (1) showed ability at his only start back on June 7 when third over 1600m at Hanshin. Assisted by the rails draw and is a solid top-three chance. HARD THINGS (3) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1600m at Tokyo when third, beaten 7 lengths. Has a low draw so he is a strong chance. ROUTE THIRTEEN (7) was unwanted in betting on debut last start but ran a strong race, finishing third and beaten one length over 1800m at Kokura. Has upside and worth including.
