GOING:

Race 7 1500m

Track:      

Solid tempo anticipated with Ali Dorata and Yume Dream leading the way. YUME DREAM (2) went back early from his wide draw over 1400m at Urawa last time but hit the line strongly to finish fifth. Capable of overwhelming this field late in proceedings. NAC CHEVALIER (4) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race when he did his best work late and finished 5.5 lengths away in seventh last time out over 1600m at Tokyo Dirt. Finds an easier assignment and can find winning form. TAKARA HUNTER (11) was thereabouts two starts ago before a disappointing sixth most recently over 1400m at Urawa. Can bounce back to best form. ALI DORATA (5) never really threatened when resuming last time out, finishing midfield and beaten 9 lengths over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt. Should be poised just off the lead. Must be respected.
