GOING: G

Race 4 1400m

Track: GOOD      

Expecting Jo Kai to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. JO KAI (8) showed good early speed when resuming last start over today's journey at this track before finishing third. In the right race and is a key runner. ORI'S GENIE (9) was well supported when resuming last start but missed the placings in fifth over 1500m at this track. Among the winning hopes. MOZU MASTERPIECE (5) started at $3.90 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth here over 1400m. Could be hard to beat in this suitable race. MEGU (12) turned in a better run last start when fifth over 1500m at this track. Toshiki Yamamoto gets the best out of this six-year-old mare. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
