GOING:

Race 7 900m

Track: AW      

Vip Regius has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. MISS SUN (7) is a distance specialist who missed the placings when resuming two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 800m at Urawa, beaten 2 lengths after being prominent at the bend. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. K T KISEKI (12) is a 17-start maiden who could only manage to finish fourth after being in the firing line on the corner at his latest appearance over 1200m at Funabashi. Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. VIP REGIUS (4) is back after a break of ten months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 900m at this track. Has found a nice race and is worth including. SEKITEI RARE (5) finished second last start over 1000m at Funabashi, beaten half a length. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a major role.
