GOING:

Race 5 1200m

Track:      

Violet Mauve and Jun Two Point to take up the running at a genuine tempo. WHITE CANVAS (3) progressed nicely last time out to finish just one length from the winner in second over 1300m at Mizusawa. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. JUN TWO POINT (7) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 10 lengths when seventh in a 1300m contest at Mizusawa a week ago after being in contention on the turn. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. VIOLET MAUVE (2) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest at Mizusawa over 1300m. Well placed and should be in the finish again. CHAMPION ACE (1) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1300m at Mizusawa, beaten 9 lengths into fifth. Better than recent efforts suggest.
