GOING:

Race 7 1400m

Track:      

Decent sized field but it lacks any obvious pace. SALT CHANCE (12) turned in a sound effort last time but found one better at this track over 1500m, beaten one length. Cherry-ripe now. Yet to find winning form this prep but has been thereabouts with two placings from four starts. Leading contender. MISTY BLUE (10) has missed the frame at his last couple of runs, the latest when he drifted back and failed to come on, beaten 20 lengths into 14th at Nakayama Dirt. Well-placed in this easier assignment and he is among the leading players. SWEET'N BITTER (2) failed to figure again last time over 1500m at this track, beaten 12 lengths into eighth. Well placed in this line-up and is among the better chances. YUKINO WHITE (7) finished second at this track two runs back but was less effective last time over 1500m at this track, finishing 11 lengths back in seventh. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time.
