GOING:

Race 5 1400m

Track:      

Daimei Noboru, Wann Klasse and Takeno Tsurugi can set the pace. WANN KLASSE (3) recorded a strong on-pace win here last time by one length over 900m. Among the top chances again. DAIMEI NOBORU (5) was sent out favourite last time and scored by 6 lengths at this track. Yet to miss the placings from three starts at this track. Shinsuke Ishikawa stays on. Well placed and should be in the finish. EIGHT KNOT (2) proved too strong two runs ago at this track. Less impressive last time out when fifth over 1400m at this track. Has the talent to take this out. KASHINO AMULET (1) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when tenth over 1400m at this track. In contention this time.
