GOING: G

Race 5 1600m

Track: GOOD      

Plenty of speed from Mikuni Sunbeam and Raritas. MIKUNI SUNBEAM (5) was far too good first up last start when he scored by 6 lengths over 1400m at this track. Fitter for that last hitout and is all set to make it two-for-two this prep. NANSEI KOTARO (7) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by a head over 1600m at this track as favourite. That continued the solid form this campaign, with two wins from six runs. Leading player again. RARITAS (9) progressed nicely last start to finish a close third over 1600m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. KASENO MOUNTAIN (4) was comfortably accounted for when seventh last time out over 1800m here after a win at this track at the previous outing. In contention this time.
