GOING:

Race 5 1500m

Track:      

From the inside gate Hercule will dash through and lead from Ardior and La Vie D'eclat. JUN FIRENZE (11) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at this track over 1400m after being prominent from the outset. Wide draw and will need a good steer from Seigo Tsukamoto but can feature. LA VIE D'ECLAT (6) made a strong late bid but just failed to pick up the winner last start over 1500m at this track. Placed to advantage so expect another forward showing. ARDIOR (3) missed the placings last start when fifth over 1500m at this track. Finds a nice race and can figure in the finish. IL PRINCIPE (2) failed to feature last start, finishing eighth over 1500m at this track. Well placed here and worth consideration.
