|---|---|---|---|---|

Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Major Tesoro. MAJOR TESORO (5) showed good early speed then led into the straight when fresh from a spell last start before fighting on to finish third over 1300m at this track. Rates highly and will be hard to peg back. RINEN FLASH (1) scored at this track last time out with 1.5 lengths in reserve at the end of 1400m. Has a fair record at this track with a win and three placings. Jun Tanaka is yet to win when aboard but has never been out of the money from three rides. Expecting a bold showing. GOLDEN THUNDER (11) improved last start but found a couple better over 1300m at this track. Nicely placed to take this out. IVY IDATEN (6) finished eighth over 1400m at this track at his latest appearance. Best efforts measure up and worth another chance.
