GOING:

Race 6 1300m

Track:      

A distinct absence of early speed so don't expect any records to be broken. TO BEAT LINE (6) resumes. Didn't make an impact at his only run last prep on 27/04/2024, finishing seventh and beaten 11 lengths over 1600m at Tokyo Dirt. Lining up today for the first time for trainer Tetsuya Nagase. Rates highly and should take beating. ATID (2) returns from a spell of nine months and is having his first run for a new yard. Finished eighth at Monbetsu over 1200m when first-up last time in work. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal. MACHAON D'OR (7) was in the firing line on the corner and finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 1400m at this track, beaten 3 lengths. Hard to beat in this suitable race. STEELOPOLIS (3) finished tenth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1400m at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can find the winner's circle.
