GOING:

Race 5 1400m

Track:      

Strong tempo with Meisho Rutile, Canna Lily and Pikku Prinssi leading the way. PIKKU PRINSSI (8) was quickly into stride and went on to score by one length last time out over 1400m at Himeji. Taking on a better line-up this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. CRIMSON RED (6) filled yet another minor placing last time when third over 1400m at Himeji. Finds a suitable race and can build on solid recent efforts. SAIMON CREST (5) finished seventh at his last appearance over 1400m at Himeji on February 13 after he was well back on straightening. Cannot be ruled out in this suitable assignment. MEISHO RUTILE (4) turned in another moderate effort last start when tenth over 1400m at Himeji. Better than recent efforts suggest and worth including.
