GOING:

Race 7 1400m

Track:      

Icarus to find the front in the small field. MAKE STORM (2) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when seventh over 1400m at this track. Should be peaking now and is expected to feature in the finish. ICARUS (4) last appeared three-and-a-half weeks ago over 900m at Kawasaki when he finished fourth. This is his first run for the Yukiyasu Kato stable. Leading hope who should be tough to stop. Solid top-three chance for the new barn. T O LYRA (6) finished fourth last start over 1400m at this track after racing on the pace for much of the way. One of the main contenders. MAPLE LEAF (3) hit the frame two starts ago at this track but ran below par last time when sixth and beaten 8 lengths over 1400m at this track. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time.
