GOING:

Race 3 1500m

Track:      

Off the low draw A Shin Gaudi is likely to find the lead at a slick tempo. A SHIN GAUDI (2) is a genuine type with three minor placings from three starts this campaign. Produced another good performance at his most recent run when second. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. LOVE LEGAL (6) last appeared five weeks ago over 1800m at Monbetsu when he finished fifth. This is his first run for the Akiko Okita stable. Solid chance for the new barn. HAGIBIS (9) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at this track. Safely held last time out when fourth. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. Z THUNDER (7) has been in the market at his last couple of starts since resuming but hasn't made an impression. Expecting improvement.
