GOING:

Race 7 1400m

Track:      

God Amavel, Aedificata and Rapunzel Moon will not hold back as they vie for the lead from Forewind and Neuer Held. GOD AMAVEL (3) puts an unbeaten record on the line after three straight wins, the latest over 1400m at this track. Has further upside and expected to continue winning form. NEUER HELD (7) scored his maiden win here last time out over today's trip, getting the decision by 2.5 lengths. Winning rider Tomohiro Sasada sticks and he is one of the main chances. BESUPOJI (4) found the line nicely last start to get up for second over 1400m at this track when resuming after a break. Tough to stop again. FOREWIND (9) is racing consistently with placings at his past three starts, including a second at this track most recently. Ready to find winning form.
