GOING:

Race 6 1500m

Track:      

Gold Plan to set a strong early tempo joined by Sodachizakari pushing on from an outside draw. SODACHIZAKARI (10) last appeared five weeks ago over 1200m at Monbetsu when she finished fifth. This is her first run for the Katsuyuki Imazu stable. Can make an immediate impact for the new mentor. CUORE PRIMA DONNA (5) is yet to break through in 11 runs. Finished eighth at her last appearance over 1500m at this track on December 4. Likely to be in the finish in this suitable assignment. LEUK PIONE (6) didn't feature last start when seventh over 1500m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. MIZUIRO (7) turned in a nice run last time to finish second over 1500m at this track. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well.
