Race 7 1400m Track: |

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

Solid tempo with Swagger, Aino Senshi and Hello My Lovely going hard, closely attended by Taisei Frank. AINO SENSHI (2) returned from a spell five-and-a-half weeks ago when he was in contention on the bend before fading at Fukushima. Finds a more suitable contest and can take this out. FIAMMA FULMINE (3) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second when resuming last time out. Looks well placed so expect another big run. SWAGGER (9) has switched yards since finishing fourth six weeks ago over 1200m at Monbetsu. Well-placed and is among the chances. TAISEI FRANK (4) pushed forward from a wide draw last time out and was prominent for a long way before fading to finish fourth. Can play a role in the finish.
