GOING:

Race 6 1200m

Track:      

Without any speed horses lining up it is not expected they will go too hard. MIYONO INAZUMA (8) was sent out favourite but could only finish fourth over 1300m at Mizusawa last time. Prior to that had been racing well, collecting two minor placings on end. Yuichi Sakaguchi stays on and although yet to win has been in the money on two occasions. Bold showing expected. TEN COUNT (4) backs up seven days after racing on the speed and finishing third over 1300m at Mizusawa. Nice run last time and shapes as a major threat. VOGUE NO YAIBA (3) remains a maiden. Was well in commission last time but could only manage to finish sixth over 1400m at Mizusawa. Cannot be ruled out in this suitable assignment. FOR YOU RUN RUN (10) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1300m at Mizusawa. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well.
