GOING:

Race 5 820m

Track:      

Strong tempo with Libellula, Coccolare and Xiao Xing Yun leading the charge. MEISHO ONITE (6) is a talented type yet to taste defeat after two runs this campaign, the latest over 820m at this track. Comfortable winner last time and can measure up again. ANYA WAKUWAKU (9) is a model of consistency with top-three finishes at her last four starts, most recently finishing second over 820m at this venue. Winning claims. SMILE AMAZONES (4) finished ninth when resuming two runs back then progressed nicely last time out after being in contention on the bend to score by one length over 820m here. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she deserves plenty of thought. XIAO XING YUN (5) didn't make an impact at her last run before going for a spell on 7/09/2025, finishing 13th and beaten 6 lengths over 1200m at Sapporo. Has switched to the Nobuharu Morimoto yard and rates among the better hopes.
