GOING: G

Race 6 1500m

Track: GOOD      

Pace genuine with Tenro and Dancing Erika pressing hard closely followed by Surge and Yumede Aetara. YUMEDE AETARA (10) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second last start over 1500m at this track. Has to overcome a tricky draw. In a suitable race and can play a major role. DANCING ERIKA (7) is racing well, scoring two back at this track before finishing 0.8 lengths from the winner in second last time over 1400m at this track. Has a strong record at this course, scoring three times from five starts. Sure to go well. SURGE (3) got the prize two runs ago at this track. Safely held last time out when second over 1500m at this track, beaten 4 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Finds a more suitable contest and can get the job done. ECORO LUCINA (11) hit the frame two starts ago at Funabashi but ran below par last time when 11th and beaten 11 lengths over 1400m at this track. Well placed and should be thereabouts.
