GOING:

Race 7 1300m

Track:      

Recuerdo is expected to lead at a strong tempo. RECUERDO (2) ran below expectations last time at this track over 1400m, finishing fifth and beaten 8 lengths. Drawn to go forward. Will play a major role. B I BLACK (10) showed good early dash and raced on the speed last start before fading to finish 6 lengths back in fourth over 1400m at this track. Sure to give a great sight. T M TOWER DON (9) finished out of the money when fresh from a spell two starts back then was beaten 22 lengths when 11th over 2880m at Nakayama five weeks ago. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a major role. PY WOLF (1) finished tenth over 1400m at this track at his most recent appearance on December 7. Has found the right race and is worth including.
