GOING: G

Race 4 1500m

Track: Good      

Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Miyagi Emperor. KRAUSELUNG (3) is a nine-start maiden who has been in the money at his last couple of runs, the latest when second over 1400m at Urawa. Top chance. BRAVE LOUISE (2) raced in the leading division and kept going to score by a nose last time out over 1400m at this track. Drawn to take a nice trail just off the speed. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he has the ability to mix it with them. NAATU (9) was in the money two starts back at this track but couldn't back it up last time when eighth, beaten 12 lengths, at Urawa over 1400m. Likely improver with strong prospects. DAGGER RING (4) is ticking along okay with two runs this time in. Improved last time out when fourth, beaten 7 lengths, at this track over 1500m. Drawn to stalk the leaders. Deserves respect on best figures.
