GOING:

Race 4 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with Fast One and Ange Marron up front. ANGE MARRON (9) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 3 lengths over 1400m at this track. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Looks well placed and she should be in the finish. FAST ONE (6) is resuming from a spell of eight months and having her first run for the Tomoyuki Fujihara yard. Was in the placings when first-up from a spell last campaign at Monbetsu over 1000m. Sure to be primed for this and a bold showing is anticipated. WAR ANTHEM (4) did little and finished 13 lengths from the winner in ninth over 1500m at Funabashi last start, a less impressive effort than his sixth at this track the run before. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. COMBAT SPICA (5) has been below best in recent runs but is one capable of featuring prominently.
