GOING:

Race 4 920m

Track:      

Moderate tempo with Teruken Lentil leading the way. TERUKEN LENTIL (9) is racing well this campaign without winning, having placed second in his last three starts. Rates highly and looks tough to beat here. KURINO GENIUS (1) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 4 lengths over 1400m at Kasamatsu. Aided by the rails draw and he is worth including. SHABAZI (4) placed two back then last time out was fifth over 920m at this track. Backmarker who gets home hard. Well placed here and among the winning hopes. KITANO REGALO (10) improved last start but found one better over 1400m at Kasamatsu. Capable of another big run.
