GOING:

KISOGAWA TOKUBETSU 2000m

Track: FIRM      

Looks to be plenty of pace with Red Raja and Air Big Mom battling for the lead. SAVOIRE FAIRE (1) bounced back last start and got the job done by a neck as public elect over 2000m at Kokura. Dug deep to score last time. Sure to go well again. MADISON GIRL (6) is back from a spell of nine weeks. Scored a good win at her only run last preparation at Kyoto over 1800m. Both career wins have been while fresh. Likely to play a major role. RED RAJA (2) is back from a spell of ten weeks. Scored a good win at his final run last campaign at Kyoto over 2000m. Can make his presence felt. HO O TITAN (5) saluted two runs ago then turned in a nice run last time out when second over 2000m at Kyoto, beaten 0.8 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish.
