GOING:

Race 7 1400m

Track:      

Small field in which Istros can find the front comfortably at a moderate tempo. ISTROS (1) showed good pace and went on to score by 2 lengths last time out over 1500m at Nagoya. Perfectly placed and can go back-to-back. HIRUNO MAAS (3) improved last start but found one better over 1400m at this track. Kyoka Fukazawa retains the ride. Leading prospect. T O MATSUKAZE (5) finished out of the money when sixth in a 1400m contest at this track two weeks ago. Well placed and gets his chance to turn things around. TIERRA SUNRISE (7) was fifth over 1600m at this track at her latest appearance. No surprise to see her in the frame here.
