GOING:

Race 4 1200m

Track:      

Cracking tempo with Hayabusa Apo Chan and Bel Vivant leading the way. BEL VIVANT (4) was an impressive winner last time over 1200m at this track, scoring by 6 lengths to make it three in succession. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Will give a great sight. HAYABUSA APO CHAN (3) has not appeared since she finished second over 1500m at Urawa on March 16. Has a strong first-up record, scoring on two occasions from four runs. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. KEIAI WHAKAPONO (2) made considerable ground in the run home to finish third last start over 1200m at this track. Solid record here at the trip, winning two races. All set to run well. TOKUSHI ODIN (6) is going well with four minor placings from seven starts this prep. Continued the trend last time out when runner-up over 1200m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run.

Recent form sound. Comes off a 30 day let-up. Last start made ground from midfield; 3rd of 11 at this track on May 4 over 1200m, 6 len behind Bel Vivant with 56kg at $17.10. The run before that came from midfield and won by a neck at this track April 3 over 1200m defeating Last Shot carrying 56kg at $9.20. An inside stall is a big advantage. Winning prospects.
