GOING:

Race 7 1400m

Track:      

Not a great deal of pressure likely in the small field, with Castagnaccio a potential leader. ZION PARK (2) improved last start but found a couple better over 1580m at this track. That last effort put the writing on the wall and he draws nicely. Well placed so can find his winning ways. DESUYOTTENI (4) has changed yards since she finished seventh at her last appearance over 1400m at Mizusawa. This looks a nice race so expect her to be right in the finish. TAKARA PRESTO (7) will find this easier than the last attempt and had put together a string of top-four results prior. Among the chances. CASTAGNACCIO (5) has claims off a win from this barrier three back at this course and distance.
