Race 5 1200m Track: |

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

Strong tempo with Last Shot, Akshardham and Pod Beau leading the way. POD BEAU (8) proved too strong two runs ago at this track. Safely held last time out when second over 1200m at this track, beaten 3 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including three wins. Finds a suitable race and can return to the winner's circle. LAST SHOT (5) continued the great form last start, scoring by a neck at this track over today's trip. Well placed to keep the ball rolling. AKSHARDHAM (10) is having her first run since February 9. Goes well when fresh with a win and two placings from four starts. Sure to make her presence felt. SERENITY (9) finished fifth over 1500m at Urawa at her most recent appearance on January 8. One to consider.
