GOING:

Race 3 900m

Track:      

Genuine tempo from Derma Aso leading Shogano Kizuna. GUSTAV (7) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 900m at this track, beaten only 1.5 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Looks well placed so expect another big run. DERMA ASO (1) has been in the money three times including last start on August 3 when third over 900m at this track. Has recorded three top-three finishes from nine runs at this venue. Great chance to break through. SHOGANO KIZUNA (8) finished fourth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1400m at this track, beaten 12 lengths after being prominent at the turn. Nicely placed to find winning ways. ALTIORA (4) is a 13-start maiden who has been in the money four times, Could only manage sixth last time out over 1400m at this track. Has recorded four top-three finishes from 10 runs at this venue. Next best.
