GOING: S

Race 7 1600m

Track: SOFT      

Genuine tempo with the speedy World Fountain leading the way. WORLD FOUNTAIN (3) lifted strongly to score two back then was prominent in the run last time before finishing second over 1600m at this track. Minami Sugiyama who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Sure to play a big role. ROAD OF KING (2) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing eighth and beaten 10 lengths starting at $7.90. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is one of the key runners. IRON BIBLE (7) did a great job to score by 2 lengths over today's course and distance when first-up from a layoff last time out. Facing a tougher assignment but he is good enough to figure in the finish. MEISHO TOKIIRO (4) ran a better race last start, finishing 4 lengths away in fourth over 1400m at this track. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
