GOING:

Race 6 1400m

Track:      

A few sit handy but there won't be a great deal of early pressure. VILLA LOBOS (4) was well fancied when resuming last start over 1400m at this track when second, beaten 2 lengths. Strong winning chance. KEN BRIDGE SAKURA (2) is returning from a spell of four-and-a-half months. Finished ninth at Kawasaki over 1600m at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer T Taguchi. Capable of playing a major role. SEASON IN THE SUN (6) showed good speed and led for much of the way before fading to finish fifth, beaten 8 lengths, over 1400m here last time. Among the chances. SHIJIMINO HINAKO (8) could only manage to finish fourth, beaten 4.5 lengths, at her latest appearance over 1400m at this track. Solid top-three chance on her best figures.
