GOING:

Race 4 820m

Track:      

Solid tempo set by Eiraku and Allenatore. FESTIVE LUCINA (4) is a 13-start maiden who was in the placings at her last two starts, finishing second at the latest appearance over 820m at this track. Sure to be prominent. EIRAKU (7) travelled on-pace last time out over 820m at this track and dug deep when pressured but found one better. Can improve enough to win this. FILLE CHAN (8) is a 19-start maiden who looks to be edging towards a win, the latest effort an encouraging third at this track over 820m. Ideally placed to break the ice. KURINO KOTEI (12) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 0.8 lengths from the winner in third over 820m at this track. Finds a nice race and can keep improving.
