GOING: FM

Race 7 1000m

Track: FIRM      

Speed should be right on over the 1000m journey. ERI KOHAKU (9) was heavily backed and justified the support when resuming last start over 800m at Urawa, scoring by 1.5 lengths. Fitter for that last hitout and she looks hard to stop again. YUNO ONE ONE (3) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing third last time out over 800m at Urawa. Will take advantage of the good draw. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot salute. SMILE NOW (4) hasn't made an impression lately despite market confidence. Last start could only manage sixth over 1200m at this track. Top-three chance on best figures. SOLEA (1) was beaten 2 lengths into fourth over 1000m at this track at her latest appearance. Better than recent efforts suggest.
