Maiden Race 1600m Track: |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Keen speed battle, with Pervictor, Temmusu and Grace Ruler prominent. Looks a one-horse race. PERVICTOR (8) has not appeared since he finished second over 1600m at Tokyo on January 31 to make it two minor placings from as many runs. Ratings have him a long way ahead. Hard to go past. SEIUN LAPIS (11) started at big odds on debut last start when fourth, beaten 6 lengths, over 1600m at this track. Open to improvement and looks the danger if there is one. BELL WOOD BIO (16) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1600m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths. Nicely placed to figure in the top three. SUGAR SHACK (13) returned from a spell three weeks ago when he was beaten 3.5 lengths into fifth over 1600m at this track. Fitter so a likely improver.
