GOING:

Maiden Race 1800m

Track:      

Strong pace from Wide Krieger, Canyon De Chelly and Roll The Bones from their low draws. CANYON DE CHELLY (1) recorded a fourth consecutive minor placing last time out, finishing 4 lengths away in third over 2000m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. SATONO BERYL (10) was in the market first up but could only manage sixth over 1800m at this track last start. Should park just off the speed. Expected to be in the finish. NEW CREDO (11) is yet to break through in four runs. Finished fourth at his last appearance over 1600m at Hanshin on March 30. Worth including in this suitable contest. WIDE KRIEGER (3) did a little better last start at the second run of the campaign, finishing sixth over 1600m at Tokyo. Drawn to stalk the leaders. Can feature in the finish.
