GOING:

Race 7 1700m

Track:      

Strong pace from Yamanin Tulsi and Scarborough Fair matching motors with Sarasa How Nice close at hand. SCARBOROUGH FAIR (11) remains unbeaten after two starts, scoring again last time over 1200m at this track. Jumps in distance but rates highly and hard to knock the winning form. SARASA HOW NICE (2) is racing well having recorded two consecutive placings since a fresh win, the latest coming when second over 1800m at this track after being in contention all the way. Finds a suitable race and can get the job done. KANETOSHI ETERNO (10) was an emphatic winner last time over 1800m at this track with today's rider Ryu Abe engaged. Has never missed the frame at this venue, including two wins. Expected to run well. SWEET CANDY (12) was unwanted in betting last start but performed beyond expectations when beaten 1.3 lengths into third over 1800m at this track. Can play a role again.
