GOING:

Race 7 1300m

Track:      

Expecting Saimon Harold to take up the running with Haruno Impact and Haruno Samson close at hand. NOISY APPROACH (8) finished back in ninth over 1400m at this track last time out after a gutsy win two runs back. Can figure prominently. APOLLO BIBI (2) finished fifth over 1400m at this track last time out following a determined win two back. Will drift back but wind up late. Leading contender. NAVARONE (1) last appeared four weeks ago over 1200m at Funabashi when he finished 11th. This is his first run for the Joji Tanaka stable. Comes here with definite top-three claims. HARUNO SAMSON (11) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when sixth over 1400m at this track. Well placed and can make amends.
