GOING:

Allowance Race 2000m

Track: FIRM      

Expecting Cosmo Avanza and Family Tree to press forward and set the tempo. CULMINALE (7) went to the paddock after scoring at his last appearance 12 weeks ago over 2000m at Kokura. Starting to put it together now and a big prep is on the cards. Looks a winning chance. COSMO LEONARDO (13) is ready to break through after collecting his 4th minor placing in a row last time over 2000m at Sapporo. Generally takes a sit so the draw makes it tricky. Good enough to feature in the finish. EASY BREEZY (12) is a progressive three-year-old filly who resumes from a break of four months, her last appearance being a win over 2000m at Tokyo. Will be in this for a long way. FAMILY TREE (2) won at Kokura two starts ago but was below her best at a more recent appearance, finishing sixth over 2000m at Chukyo. Nicely placed to turn things around.
