GOING:

Race 7 1230m

Track:      

Kazutoshikun to go to the lead at a genuine tempo. GOLD MIRE (1) is a last-start winner over 1230m at this track, making it two victories from four appearances this campaign. Can measure up again. KAZUTOSHIKUN (10) improved last time out to score over 1400m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can go on to make it two in a row. TECHNO EXPRESS (8) started at $5.90 last time and ran below expectations, finishing ninth at this track over 820m. Struggling to break through but gets chance here.. SOLIS LUX (7) improved last start to finish third over 1230m at this track. Best efforts measure up so capable of another big run.
