GOING:

Race 5 1500m

Track:      

Not a great deal of pressure likely in the small field, with Eminent Career a potential leader. KYOEI SAMANTHA (1) made progress last start to finish third over 1500m at this track. Ideally placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. LUCETTA (6) has switched yards since finishing third three weeks ago over 1200m at Funabashi. Likely to play a major role. EMINENT CAREER (4) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 7 lengths into eighth after being in contention on the turn. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. LUX LIEBEN (5) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when seventh over 1400m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.
