GOING: G

Allowance Race 1800m

Track:      

Plenty of pace with Delicieux and Meiner Fuga up front, pressured by Danon Mission and Gold Breath. MEINER FUGA (5) was prominent from the outset and fought on for second last start over 1800m at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Well placed this line-up and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. DANON MISSION (2) last appeared when he finished ninth over 1800m at Nakayama Dirt on April 20. Comes here with definite claims. MEINER MOMENTUM (7) returns from a layoff of nine weeks. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 2000m at Fukushima. Can make his presence felt. GOLD BREATH (4) was last at the races when he finished tenth over 1800m at Hakodate on June 22. Worth plenty of thought.
