GOING:

Race 5 1400m

Track:      

Reasonable tempo with Vasuki Un probably leading but a few others should keep him honest. VASUKI UN (3) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second when resuming last start over 920m at this track. Should enjoy a good run just off the speed and is nicely placed to play a pivotal role. FULL HEART BEAT (9) pushed forward from a wide draw last time out and was prominent for a long way before fading to finish fourth over 1500m here. Will go forward and is expected to be in the finish. BOZEMAN (10) finished seventh over 1400m at Kasamatsu at his most recent appearance on April 4. Has found the right race and is worth including. WATER GENIE (4) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1500m at this venue. Nicely placed to feature in the finish.
