GOING:

Race 6 1500m

Track:      

Genuine tempo from Kitano Rainier leading Lux El Dorado. LUX EL DORADO (2) is a distance specialist who did little and finished sixth over 1700m at this track last start. This is a nice drop in grade so he can find the winners' list. CIEL LENA (4) was racing well without winning, finishing in the money on three consecutive occasions, before finishing fourth last time out over 1400m at this track. Expecting sharp improvement. VENT D'ARGENT (6) improved last start but found one better over 1500m at this track, beaten only 1.5 lengths. Well placed and in the mix. SAIMON PLAISIR (9) last appeared six-and-a-half weeks ago over 1800m at Chukyo Dirt when he finished seventh. This is his first run for the T Tsunoda stable and he should be primed for this.
