KOCHI   21 Dec 2025
 
GOING:

Race 7 1400m

Track:      

Just a moderate tempo headed by Sieg Mind, Chotto Yabaiyone and Reggae Punch. LUNA VELOCE (5) doesn't win out of turn but did a good job last start to finish second over 1300m at this track. Likely contender with strong prospects. ARDE COCO (6) recorded a strong maiden win here last time. Looks well placed to make it two on the bounce. NAGISANO JOJO (1) finished out of the money when seventh over 1600m at this track two weeks ago. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. CHOTTO YABAIYONE (7) has been in the market at his last couple of starts since resuming but hasn't made an impression. Expecting improvement.
