GOING:

Race 4 1200m

Track:      

Genuine tempo from Ecoro Agenda leading Shiawaseno Lamp. SHIAWASENO LAMP (6) raced on the speed and lifted to score by 2.5 lengths at this track and trip last start in a far better run. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat again in this suitable race. ECORO AGENDA (9) was well-fancied last time out but could only manage third over 1400m seven days ago. Tricky draw to overcome but is likely to be in the finish. GINGA (3) is back from a break of five months. Raced below par at his only appearance last prep when tenth over 1400m at Mizusawa. Ryo Takamatsu has scored on him two times and is back in the saddle. Has claims on his best figures. GRACE CHOCOLAT (4) has been in the placings her past two starts, finishing third over 1200m at this track last time out. Should be in the mix again.
