GOING:

Race 7 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo from Digna leading Maple Kenji. AKARI RICKY (4) was well beaten two back then enjoyed the easier grade last time when finding the frame over 1400m at this track and gets some weight relief for this. Rates strongly in this similar company and should feature again. Go close. MAPLE KENJI (1) has been thereabouts without winning, the most recent effort a second at this track over 1400m when he was beaten 1.75 lengths. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Expecting a bold showing. DAISHICHISEI (7) made considerable ground in the run home to finish third last start over 1400m at this track. Has a win and five placings at this journey from nine starts. Another bold showing is expected. DIGNA (2) had support when resuming last time out but never threatened when a disappointing seventh here. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Can feature in the finish.
