GOING:

Race 5 1300m

Track:      

Plenty of pace from Konohanasakuyahime, Bon Weekend and Vila Isabel primarily. SUN THIRA (8) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 2.5 lengths over 1400m at this track as favourite. That continued the solid form this campaign, with two wins and three minor placings from six starts. Top chance again. VILA ISABEL (4) is in fine form and hasn't missed the frame in her past four starts. Last time out she finished third over 900m at this track. Winning claims yet again. ROYAL DEVISER (5) is racing okay without winning including a last start third over 1600m at Kasamatsu. Among the chances again. BON WEEKEND (7) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track over 1750m. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake.
