GOING:

Race 6 1500m

Track:      

There should be a bit of pressure with Ryuno Nautilus and Greig Un pressing forward in advance of Marumo Genie and Negaiwa Kanau. GREIG UN (1) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 8 lengths over 1400m at this track. Looks well placed and can win again. MARUMO GENIE (3) was sent out favourite last time and scored by 8 lengths at this track. Yet to miss the placings from three starts at this circuit. Among the leading chances. LITTLE QUEEN BEE (2) last appeared four weeks ago over 1400m at Kawasaki when she finished tenth. This is her first run for the Toshiyuki Takahashi stable. Solid top-three hope. RYUNO NAUTILUS (7) turned in a fine effort to win by 3 lengths at this track and distance when first-up from a spell last time out. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is one of the key runners.
