GOING: S

Race 5 1400m

Track: SOFT      

Riko Mica to take charge ahead of Live Radian at a good tempo. RIKO MICA (9) turned in a solid run when resuming last start over this course and distance, finishing second and beaten only one length. Has a win and two minor placings at this journey from four starts and shapes as a key contender. NOBLE PLATINA (7) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1500m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths. Fitter this time. Hard to beat in this suitable race. KOYU MYU MYU (10) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at Funabashi. Safely held last time out when 11th over 1400m at this track, beaten 10 lengths. Has the ability to produce another win. LAGOON LIBERTY (8) didn't make an impact at her last run before going for a spell on March 19, finishing sixth and beaten 6 lengths over 1500m at this track. Has found a suitable race and is worth including.
