GOING:

Race 4 1200m

Track:      

Derma Opera should lead at a keen tempo. DERMA OPERA (3) finished just a head from the winner in second when fresh from a break last start over 1200m at this track after racing on the pace. Nice alley assists. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. BROAD PHYLUM (4) had been rock-solid with two placings in a row before finishing fourth over 1200m at this track last start. Will drift back but wind up late. Will be tough to stop. PEGASE BRILLER (9) returns from a spell of three-and-a-half months. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when seventh over 1400m at Urawa. Sure to make his presence felt. MAD RIBBON GIRL (10) has not won for a long while. Last raced on May 4 when beaten 7 lengths into sixth at this track over 1200m after she got a long way back in the run. Suitably placed so anticipating a bold performance.
