Race 5 1300m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Strong early tempo likely with several going forward, headed by Ford Tesoro and T M Fellow. ABIERTO (11) finished ninth last time out over 1000m at Niigata when first up from a spell. Steps up in distance today. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Expecting a bold showing. FEB KIRANAH (4) has scored at his last three starts. That continued the solid form this campaign, with five wins and five minor placings from 14 runs. Can measure up again. IRISH SENSE (7) had a bit on his rivals last time with an impressive win over 1400m at this track. Is going okay this campaign, recording three wins and three minor placings from eight starts. Expected to be competitive. T M FELLOW (9) showed good early speed and led throughout to score by 1.5 lengths last start over 1800m at this track. Hard to knock the record of Manato Hida when aboard; yet to miss the frame including three wins. Don't underestimate.
