GOING:

Race 5 2000m

Track:      

Kagayaki Fighter, Immortel and Rikea Dimbula can set a genuine tempo. TAISEI LE CIEL (9) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1500m at this track. Going up a level this time but he deserves plenty of thought. FINAL WONDER (3) returns from a break of five months. Genuine performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a second over 2000m at this track. Nicely placed to kick off another successful campaign. TATSUNO KISEKI (11) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 2000m at Urawa, beaten 4.5 lengths into fifth. Can improve here. IMMORTEL (5) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish second over 2000m at this track. Is going well this campaign, recording a win and two minor placings from six starts. Deserves respect on his best figures.
