GOING:

Race 4 1000m

Track:      

Pace genuine with Yamanin Aries and Katsuno Twelve pressing hard closely followed by Yamano Pretty and Oolong. KATSUNO TWELVE (12) resumes today after filling a minor placing at her last appearance at this track over 1000m on November 11. Sure to make her presence felt. A SHIN CANOPY (2) missed the frame last start over 1500m at Kawasaki when14th. Faces an easier assignment so she is one of the main contenders. TSUKIYOZAKURA (3) has switched yards since scoring by 5 lengths at Nagoya over 1400m on February 23. Well-placed and is among the chances. HAPPY PINK (1) finished eighth over 1200m at this track at her most recent appearance on November 11. Has found a suitable race and is worth including.
