Race 7 1400m Track: |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Pace looks strong from Kurino Hero and Accordance striding forward, with Kikuno Rta kicking up on the inside. NANAN (2) was an impressive winner last time over 1400m at Himeji, scoring by 3 lengths to make it two in succession. Hard to knock and should go well again. KURINO HERO (4) ran a strong race last time out, finishing second and beaten only 1.3 lengths over 1400m at Himeji. Can run well again. KIKUNO RTA (1) had been in top form landing two consecutive wins before a last-start second over 1400m at Himeji. Major player. ACCORDANCE (8) missed the frame last time when fifth at Himeji. Prior to that had been in the money on two consecutive occasions. Can feature in the finish.
