GOING:

Race 6 1400m

Track:      

Morion has good gate speed and can overcome the wide draw to lead. NAMURA CREPE (5) is racing with great purpose and has three wins on end, most recently scoring by 0.8 lengths over 1600m at Kochi. Should camp just off the leaders. Can add another win to the sequence. MORION (10) put together a string of wins before she clocked-in third last time out at this track over 1200m. Has a terrific record here with three wins and one placing from four starts. Expect a bold showing. RYUNO CORSA (2) resumes after a break of four months. Looking to emulate his debut win over 1000m at Funabashi to kick off last prep. Capable of playing a major role. NEVIS (1) ran a strong race last time out, finishing second and beaten only 0.8 lengths over 1400m at this track. Well drawn so anticipating another bold showing.
