GOING:

Race 4 1400m

Track:      

Plenty of speed engaged with Derma Gomory, Tamahagane and Daphnis going forward ahead of Kamino Magic and Only Morgan. TAMAHAGANE (1) proved too strong last start and scored by 6 lengths over 1500m at this track. Boasts three wins here. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Expecting a bold showing. WATASHIDE IIDESUKA (4) is a talented galloper who is unbeaten in three runs this time in, the latest at this track over 1500m. Comfortable winner last time and can measure up again. DAPHNIS (3) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest at this track over 1400m. Well placed and should be in the finish again. KAMINO MAGIC (7) is closing in on a win after two consecutive placings, the latest a second over 1500m at this track. Should be in the mix again.
