GOING: G

Race 6 1400m

Track: GOOD     True  

Genuine tempo from Amarelo Flavor leading Jo Salute. AMARELO FLAVOR (5) comes here off a break of five months. Scored over 1500m at this track to launch the last campaign. Rates highly and should take some beating. YORUDEMO ASA (9) turned in a strong run two starts ago at Kawasaki, then failed to back it up over 1600m at Funabashi last time, finishing fifth. Coming back in trip suits, so he looks like a leading contender. MALACHITE (2) strode forward early from her wide draw over 2000m at this track last time, leading for much of the way before fading to finish fourth. Another bold showing is expected. JO SALUTE (4) has been freshened up since she finished eighth over 1500m at this track seven-and-a-half weeks ago. Should camp just off the leaders. Must be respected.
