GOING:

Race 4 1400m

Track:      

Moderate pace from Forewind taking it up with Sakura Top Seller and Meisho Figaro on his back. FUKUNO FEAR NONE (2) did a great job to score by 4 lengths over this course and distance when first-up from a layoff last start. Another big run will not surprise. SAKURA TOP SELLER (4) improved last time out to score by 5 lengths over 1400m at this track. Steps up a level but he is capable of another big run. MEISHO FIGARO (8) turned in a fine effort to score by 5 lengths at this track and distance last start in a much improved run. Going up a level this time but he can win again. TAIIKUSUWARI (10) has been below par in two runs since a win three back, last start finishing tenth over 1400m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can turn things around.
