GOING: G

Race 7 1200m

Track: GOOD      

Solid tempo anticipated with Pole Pole and Collier D'or pressing forward with Kill Connection not far away. COLLIER D'OR (2) has been safely held at her last couple of runs, the latest when eighth over 1800m at Kyoto Dirt. Back to NAR level now and the Yano and Fujita combination is lethal, striking at 27%. Can make an impact back to this grade. MIRACULUM (10) is still a maiden after three runs. Was well in commission last time out but didn't live up to market expectations, finishing seventh over 1200m at this track. Well placed on this occasion and gets her chance to break the ice. NINE ESQUIRE (1) is on debut for the Daisuke Mashima stable. Three-year-old colt by Henny Hughes from Honey Fitz. Should get all the favours out of an inside gate. Should acquit himself well. Watch for a positive market lead. POLE POLE (9) lined up for start 11 last time and after sitting on the pace she weakened to finish eighth over 1200m at this track. Should park just off the speed. One of the better hopes.
1 NINE ESQUIRE
DAISUKE MASHIMA
