GOING:

Race 4 1500m

Track:      

Solid tempo anticipated with Maximilien and Glare Mirage matching motors. KANNAGI (5) did a good job to win at this track two back then got back but didn't give up last time. Two-time winner at this course and distance. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. BIG GATE (4) was in contention all the way and fought on for second last start at this track and trip, making it two minor placings in a row. Could break through. REWARD LUTIN (2) started at $3.70 last time and ran below expectations but came from this draw for a win at this venue prior so is worth another chance. MAXIMILIEN (1) made it three placings from the last four starts when second last time. Draws the inside so can figure again.
