GOING:

Maiden Race 1900m

Track:      

Kurino Bergman should find the front with Ali Dorata and Valiosa on his heels. VALIOSA (1) finished third over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt two back then missed the frame last time out over 1700m at Kokura Dirt. Should enjoy a good run just off the speed. Best figures stack up and looks well placed to get off the mark. WIDE KRIEGER (9) is yet to break through in eight runs. Finished fourth at his last appearance over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt on June 7 after he got a long way back in the run. Likely to be in the finish in this suitable assignment. EDELWEISS (8) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then was beaten 6 lengths when fifth in a 1800m contest at Hanshin Dirt seven weeks ago. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. MEISHO ISLE (7) finished third last start over 1800m at Kokura, beaten 2 lengths. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
