GOING: G

Race 7 1200m

Track: GOOD      

Solid tempo with Harmony Roi possessing enough dash to find the front. KINGSBURY (6) was leading on the turn and fought on to finish fifth over 1200m at this track at his latest appearance. Has a strong record here at this journey. Masashige Honda who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Expecting a bold showing. RYUNO MASAMUNE (8) is back from a spell after closing last campaign with a couple of wins, the latest over 1200m at this track on June 4. Backmarker who keeps coming. Will prove hard to hold out. SYNERGY EFFECT (3) surprised many last time when a close second over 1200m at this track. One of the main contenders. TECHNO ANGEL (7) finished ninth, beaten 5.5 lengths, last time out over this course and distance after coming from an outside draw. Backmarker who gets home hard. Don't underestimate.
