KAWASAKI   11 Apr 2025
 
GOING: G

Race 5 1400m

Track: GOOD     True  

Speed assured from Auster, Koisuru Shiina and Fee Des Fleurs pressing on ahead of Meisho Benibana. AWESOME WORLD (6) finished last campaign with a couple of minor placings, the latest over 1400m at this track five months ago. Could prove tough to beat fresh. MEISHO BENIBANA (4) finished second at this track two runs back but didn't measure up last time over 1400m at Urawa, finishing back in 11th. Tackling a deeper field this time but she is good enough to turn things around. SIENA TITICACA (5) got the prize two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when seventh over 1400m at Urawa. Has tasted success at this venue and is one of the main contenders. ODEN RICKEY (3) settled well back and failed to come on last start when eighth over 1400m at this track at her first run back from a break. Fitter and should run well.
