GOING:

Race 7 1300m

Track:      

Strong tempo with Teleos Mina and Five Roses leading the way over Sun Nerine. TELEOS MINA (6) has scored at her last five starts, most recently by 2.5 lengths over 1300m at this track as favourite. In red-hot form and is a big chance once again. The one to beat. POPPING BERRY (5) doesn't win out of turn but left a good impression last time out when beaten narrowly into third here. Can run well again and take this out. SUN NERINE (1) improved last start but found one better over 1400m here, only beaten 1.3 lengths. The engagement of Yoshiki Yamada is a positive move. Likely improver with strong prospects. ORIENTAL KING (4) resumes from a spell of four-and-a-half months and is having his first outing under new trainer Sameshima Katsuya. Drops significantly in grade for this first-up assignment and is worth keeping safe.
