GOING:

Maiden Race 1800m

Track:      

Strong tempo expected from Jun Tomy, Lord Leggiero and T O Stein. LORD LEGGIERO (4) resumes. Closed last prep with a 11th over 1800m at this track on March 15. Worth noting that he opened the last campaign with a minor placing at Kyoto over 2000m. Drawn to enjoy a nice run just off the lead. Best figures should see him run well. MATENRO GIFT (1) could only manage tenth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1800m at Kyoto, beaten 2 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. T O STEIN (18) is yet to break through after 11 starts. Placed two back then last time out was fourth, beaten 2.75 lengths, over 1800m at Kyoto. Suited here and can feature with even luck. HORSE ONE (14) settled well back from the inside draw last start before coming home nicely to finish 4 lengths away in fifth over 2000m at Kyoto. Can play a role in the finish.
