GOING:

Race 4 1300m

Track:      

Genuine tempo from Bicky First leading Tamamo Ittosei. BICKY FIRST (9) is back after a break of three-and-a-half months. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1300m at this track. Expect him to play a major role. IN ORBIT (10) has progressed nicely in his last couple of runs. Finished third at this track two starts back then landed the prize by a neck last time out over 1600m at this track. Shoji Nishimori scored on him last time and retains the ride. Taking on a better line-up this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. DANON FAST (2) has been in the placings his past two starts, finishing second over 1600m at this track last time out. Form at this track is solid. Must be respected. ISAAC BAROWS (1) was beaten only 3.5 lengths in a 1400m contest at this track two weeks ago. Draws to advantage.
