GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Moderate tempo expected with Hagino Aggressive likely to find the front over Gentatsu and High Life. HAGINO AGGRESSIVE (4) registered a strong win at Himeji two runs ago. Decent effort last time out when prominent at the turn before finishing second over 1400m at this track, beaten 1.3 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. GENTATSU (2) is building towards a win with placings at his last two runs, the latest effort a third over 1400m at this track when beaten 32 lengths. Form here at this distance is sound with two wins and two minor placings from six starts. Expected to go very well. NARITA BONNY (3) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 6 lengths into fifth. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. ECORO ATHENA (6) finished 9 lengths away in fifth at her last appearance over 1400m at this track on April 14 after she was well back on straightening. Among the chances in what looks a nice race for her.
