GOING:

Race 7 1400m

Track:      

Keen battle for the lead with World Connector, Bonny Majesty and Keten Dream in advance of Kitasan Hikoboshi and Mut Kurve. HONEY TOAST (11) scored by 0.8 lengths last start over this journey at this track. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including two wins and five placings. In form and should go well again. BONNY MAJESTY (10) is having his first run since March 25. Goes well when fresh with two wins and two placings from seven starts. Key runner. WORLD CONNECTOR (5) hit the frame when resuming two runs back at this track but couldn't back it up last start when ninth, beaten 8 lengths, over 1650m at this track after being in contention on the corner. Has started three times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Has the talent to take care of this field. KETEN DREAM (8) finished 6 lengths behind the winner in fifth place when resuming over 1650m last start at this track. Generally goes well with that run under the belt. Likely improver.
