GOING:

Race 5 1600m

Track:      

Genuine tempo from Charming Doll leading Kamigamino Utage. KAMIGAMINO UTAGE (2) was well fancied last start over 1400m at this track when second. Proving a good combination with Junki Mochizuki with five straight placings. Expecting another bold showing. RYOMA (7) fitter for the first up run over 1400m at this track. Has won when racing second up and is among the winning hopes. ESPELHAR (6) made progress last start to finish second over 1600m at this track. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. CHARMING DOLL (8) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing fifth. Has started three times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Can turn things around.
