GOING:

Race 4 1400m

Track: DIRT      

Moderate pace only as Good Win leads Piena Rhapsody. BEST RUNNER (8) ran well for a neck victory at this track and journey as the favourite last time out. Drawn out but will wind up late and expected to be tough to stop. BRAVO BAMBINO (1) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race last time when second and beaten only a neck over 1400m at this track. Rates well on latest effort and among the hopes in this. As is HAPPY AND MOCHA (4) who has two career wins to her name and ran an eye-catching race last time finishing third over 1400m at this track. Jockey Takuya Okamura stays atop and they are set to go well together while GOOD WIN (3) ran fourth last start and is another not to be underestimated.
