GOING:

Race 6 1400m

Track:      

Without a great deal of early pace evident Miss Katharine may lead the way over Big Timer. WALDBADEN (7) proved too strong last start and scored by 8 lengths over 1500m at this track. Yet to miss the placings from three starts at this circuit. Winning rider Tatsuya Nakajima stays aboard. Sure to run well. M T LOVE (1) showed little early speed last start and failed to come on in the straight when eighth, beaten 8 lengths, over 1400m at Kawasaki. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. MEISHO ROCKY (2) is a 46-start maiden who could only manage to finish fifth at his latest appearance over 1400m at this track. Cannot be ruled out in this suitable assignment. POSITIVE GIRL (9) made late ground and finished second last time over 1500m at this track. Will trim down following recent racing. Likely improver with top-three claims again.
