GOING:

Race 3 1600m

Track:      

Without a recognised leader, Bliss Disha and Lord Status will likely set the pace. LORD STATUS (2) is returning from a spell of eight months. Finished 14th at Kyoto Dirt over 1800m at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Yuji Uchikoshi. Expected to feature. NOEL (9) was prominent from the outset and fought on for third last start over 1300m at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Sure to run well. MEISHO HAYASE (10) improved last start but found a couple better over 1400m here. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. OWENS VALLEY (7) finished seventh at his last appearance over 1400m at this track on February 25. No surprise if he figured in the finish.

Comes off a 33 day let-up. Last start 6th of 12 at Kawasaki on February 6 over 1400m, 6 len behind Gaura Thunder with 51kg at $47.20. The run before that failed to make an impression; 7th of 12 at Funabashi on January 23 over 1200m, 12 len behind Derma Nekodamashi with 54kg at $22.70. Hard to make a winning case.

At the latest run raced on the pace before fading to run last of 10 at this track on February 25 over 1400m, 19 len behind Fuji Rhubarb with 55kg at $37.90. The run before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 12 at this track on February 11 over 1300m, 5 len behind Star Cruising carrying 55kg at $53.50. Cannot be ruled out despite a plain effort last time.
