GOING:

Race 7 1400m

Track:      

Reasonable tempo with Kura Saber probably leading but a few others should keep him honest. B STREET (5) was safely held when tenth last time out over 1400m at Mizusawa. That followed a win at Mizusawa at the previous outing. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. AMULET (4) finished 6 lengths away in second last time out at Mizusawa. On a seven-day back-up. Good effort last start and is capable of taking this out. FUMI TATSU BRAVO (3) is a 17-start maiden who finished fourth after being prominent at the corner at his most recent appearance over 1400m at Mizusawa. Suited in this line up and is among the better hopes. KURA SABER (6) was responsible for a better run last start, finishing fifth over 1400m at Mizusawa. Has his share of talent and is a top-three prospect.
