GOING:

Race 3 1300m

Track:      

Nothing to run them along so the pace looks even at best. ASHAKA BACH (3) last appeared five weeks ago over 1200m at Niigata Dirt when he finished tenth. This is his first run for the Daisaku Mekusa stable. Expecting a seamless transition. CITY PROSPER (9) is racing well, scoring two back at this track before finishing a neck from the winner in second last time over 1400m at this track. Well placed and worth another chance. MEISHO GOKETSU (7) is a eight-start maiden who is building towards a win, the latest run an encouraging third over 1400m at this track after being in contention on the bend. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. YUINO NANAFUSHIGI (1) was beaten 5 lengths into third at this track two starts ago then finished 6 lengths from the winner in fourth last time at this track. Has a strong finish. Has ability and definitely worth including.
