GOING:

Race 4 1400m

Track:      

Genuine pace with Keiai Maple taking up the running ahead of Danon Michael and Win Xanadu. KEIAI MAPLE (4) reunites with Shuji Akaoka after scoring with ease over 1600m at this track last time. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Expecting another bold showing. WIN XANADU (2) held on well to finish second last start over 1600m at this track, beaten a neck. Minoru Miyagawa is a key engagement. Nicely placed to find winning form. BEAR ANGEL (3) is a genuine type with six minor placings from nine starts this campaign. Half a length from the winner in second last time out over 1400m at this track. Has the ability to produce another positive result. KITANO HERO (6) was responsible for a better run last start when sixth over 1400m at this track. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
