GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Strong tempo to be established by Butterfly Lock, Don Takami and Music Man. MUSIC MAN (3) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 2.5 lengths over 1500m at this track. Winning rider Taiga Kurihara stays aboard and he is sure to go well again. BUTTERFLY LOCK (9) is back from a break of six months. Put together back-to-back wins before going for a spell, the most recent at this track over 1500m. Has a strong record at this course, scoring two times from four starts. Should be in the finish fresh. MANY (7) was strongly fancied when second last time over 1500m at this track after being well positioned to strike on the turn. One of the main contenders. HIYA (5) is racing well, most recently finishing second two weeks ago over 1500m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can play a big role.
