Maiden Race 1600m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|

A solid tempo is anticipated with the first starters potentially serving it up to Tsukin Kaisoku and Yamanin Alexis who are expected to press forward. YAMANIN ALEXIS (13) has been in the placings at his last two, most recently when second over 1600m at this track at his third run back from a break. Should be positioned just off the lead. Will play a major role. VEGARIA (3) wasn't far away on debut last start over 1600m at this track, finishing fourth and beaten 2 lengths. Sure to improve and can get off the mark this time. MOON GRAIL (15) is a six-start maiden who finished fifth, beaten 3 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1600m at Chukyo. Definite top-three hope with plenty of improvement to come. RED FREEMAN (5) is on debut. By Daiwa Major and comes from the Masahiro Otake stable. Pay to watch for any positive betting moves.
