GOING:

Race 7 1000m

Track:      

Solid tempo anticipated with Copano Addams leading the way. KURO NOIR (1) is back at the races for the first time since November 2. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1000m at this track. Will be tuned up for this and is expected to run well. SIGLA DEA (2) hasn't made an impression since resuming despite market confidence. Last start could only manage seventh over 900m at Kawasaki. Rates highly in this line-up and gets her chance. AITO ARTHUR (6) has switched yards since finishing 12th five weeks ago over 1600m at Ohi. Has ability and makes plenty of appeal. COPANO ADDAMS (3) was in the firing line on the bend and finished third last start over 1400m at Kasamatsu. Placed to advantage so expect a forward showing.
