GOING:

Maiden Race 1200m

Track:      

Plenty of pressure primarily from Iron Overcome, Tableau and Obsidiana. WIN REALISER (7) is building towards a maiden win after minor placings at her last two runs, the latest when third over 1400m at Tokyo Dirt, beaten 4 lengths. Backmarker who gets home hard. Leading contender. OBSIDIANA (3) is yet to break through after seven career starts. Managed to find the placings at Tokyo Dirt two starts back before finishing 11th over 1400m at Tokyo Dirt last start. Likely to be about the money. UNEXPLORED (5) is racing well without winning. Last start finished eighth, beaten 6 lengths, over 1400m at Tokyo Dirt. Should measure up. TABLEAU (6) is a eight-start maiden who has been in the money three times. Could only manage sixth at the latest appearance over 1300m at Tokyo Dirt. Has recorded three minor placings from seven tries at this distance. Should enjoy a good run just off the speed. Must be respected.
