GOING: G

Allowance Race 1800m

Track:      

Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by Miyabi Brave. BEST ME EVER (11) opened this prep last start with a third, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 1800m at this track. Big run likely. ASK COME ON MORE (2) is racing well, scoring two back at Chukyo before finishing 1.5 lengths from the winner in third last time over 2000m in stakes class here. Deserves another chance. HO O MUSASHI (9) resumes from a spell of three-and-a-half months. Has filled a minor placing at both first-up runs. Opened last prep with a second over 1800m at this venue. Bold showing expected. RED TELEOS (1) resumes after a break of ten weeks. Won on debut to launch the last campaign over 2000m at Nakayama. Sound prospects from the inside marble.
