GOING:

Race 7 850m

Track:      

Sonobashinogi and Farrokh can be prominent. SONOBASHINOGI (8) turned in a fine effort to score by 1.75 lengths at this course and distance when resuming from a spell last start. No reason she cannot salute again. FARROKH (2) showed good pace and went on to score by half a length when resuming last time out over 850m at this track. Will take advantage of the good draw. In a suitable race and can find the winner's circle. YUKINO MATSUSHIMA (10) was in the firing line on the bend and finished second last start over 850m at this track, beaten a neck. Going up a level this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. IDOL FESTA (5) scored two back at this track but was below her best last time when eighth over 850m at this track. Nicely placed to turn things around.
