GOING:

Race 4 1400m

Track:      

Not seeing a great deal of early speed. MEISHO GOKETSU (7) has switched yards since finishing 11th five weeks ago over 1900m at Kyoto Dirt. Much better placed here. Bright prospects. CITY PROSPER (6) was well beaten in better company two back then tackled an easier race last time when a 0.8 lengths winner over 1300m at this track. Well placed again and is among the leading players again. FIRST SCENE (4) is a seven-start maiden who could only manage to finish fifth at her latest appearance over 1300m at this track. Solid top-three chance on her best figures. ROYAL SOUNDER (3) was out of the money two runs back when fresh from a spell then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at Ohi, beaten 14 lengths into eighth. Capable of featuring prominently in this easier assignment.
