GOING:

Race 4 1400m

Track:      

No recognised leader engaged but Danon Bullseye has the pace to work to the front. A SHIN ROCKY (10) registered a strong win at this track two runs ago. Fair effort last time out when in contention on the bend before finishing fourth over 1300m at this track, beaten 0.6 lengths. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. DANON BULLSEYE (11) went forward when resuming last start over 1300m at this track and held on well for third, beaten 1.5 lengths. Will be handy in transit despite the tricky draw. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. FLOWER COMPANY (12) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 3 lengths when fourth over 1300m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Will take beating this time. MEISHO NITABO (8) has been in the money at his last couple of runs, the latest when third over 1300m at this track. Omi Daiki has registered four minor placings when on board. Deserves respect.
