GOING: G

Race 4 1500m

Track: GOOD      

Reasonable tempo with Fuku Formosa probably leading but a few others should keep her honest. FESTIVE NISA (10) improved last start but found one better over 1500m at this track, beaten only a neck. Sure to run well. HEAVENLY SKY (4) was well fancied last time and finished second over 1500m at this track. Kept fresh since the last run. Leading contender. HOREKITA YAREKITA (6) failed to figure last time over 1500m at this track when sixth. Expected to feature if at his best. ANGEL LAMP (7) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1500m at this track. Has her share of talent and finds a suitable race.
