GOING:

Race 7 1400m

Track:      

Solid pace with Out Raising finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. KASHINO ASAP (6) scored last start at this track over this distance after he was in contention on the turn. Has a very good record over today's journey with four wins from eight starts. Should park just off the speed. Best form puts him right in this. OUT RAISING (5) was in a different class last time with a dominant all-the-way win by 2 lengths at this track over 1400m. Record at this track is strong. Expected to be in the finish. BLACK SUNRISE (9) did a great job to score by a neck over this course and distance last start in a much improved run. Likely to be there at the finish again. KITAKARAKITATENSHI (8) has not been sighted since she finished fifth over 1400m at this track on November 9. Must be respected.
